Gene: MMEL1
Alternate names for this Gene: MMEL2|NEP2|NEPII|NL1|NL2|SEP
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the neutral endopeptidase (NEP) or membrane metallo-endopeptidase (MME) family. Family members play important roles in pain perception, arterial pressure regulation, phosphate metabolism and homeostasis. This protein is a type II transmembrane protein and is thought to be expressed as a secreted protein. This gene is expressed mainly in testis with weak expression in the brain, kidney, and heart.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 1
Location in Chromosome : 1p36.32
Description of this Gene: membrane metalloendopeptidase like 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
