Summary
Predicted to enable metalloendopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein processing. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in distal arthrogryposis type 5D. Orthologous to human KEL (Kell metallo-endopeptidase (Kell blood group)) and ECEL1 (endothelin converting enzyme like 1).
