Date_last_updated17 Jun 2004 00:00:00
Automated_descriptionEnables FBXO family protein binding activity and serine-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; protein processing; and regulation of multicellular organismal process. Located in axon. Expressed in several structures, including mechanosensory neurons; nerve ring; pharynx; tail; and uv1. Used to study alcohol use disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myocardial infarction and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Is an ortholog of human PCSK2 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 2).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
