About UROC1

Summary

This gene encodes an Enzyme involved in the second step of histidine catabolism, metabolizing urocanic acid to formiminoglutamic acid. Deficiency of this Enzyme results in urocanic aciduria, and is an apparent cause of mental retardation. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
