Gene: LACTB

Alternate names for this Gene: G24|MRPL56

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrially-localized protein that has sequence similarity to prokaryotic beta-lactamases. Many of the residues responsible for beta-lactamase activity are not conserved in this protein, suggesting it may have a different enzymatic function. Increased expression of the related mouse gene was found to be associated with obesity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different protein isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 15

Location in Chromosome : 15q22.2

Description of this Gene: lactamase beta

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: RPS27L

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein sharing 96% amino acid similarity with ribosomal protein S27, which suggests the encoded protein may be a component of the 40S ribosomal subunit.
