Summary: Enables epoxide hydrolase activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including linoleic acid metabolic process; prostaglandin production involved in inflammatory response; and response to 3-methylcholanthrene. Located in peroxisome. Used to study cerebral infarction; hypertension; and pulmonary hypertension. Biomarker of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease; familial hypercholesterolemia; and hypertension. Orthologous to human EPHX2 (epoxide hydrolase 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
