Summary
Predicted to enable ornithine decarboxylase activity. Predicted to be involved in putrescine biosynthetic process from ornithine. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma; hepatocellular carcinoma; and liver cirrhosis. Orthologous to human AZIN1 (antizyme inhibitor 1); AZIN2 (antizyme inhibitor 2); and ODC1 (ornithine decarboxylase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
