This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 41 phenotypes. Broad expression in duodenum adult (RPKM 55.7), small intestine adult (RPKM 47.7) and 16 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the xanthine dehydrogenase protein family. The encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions. The encoded protein exists as two distinct enzymatic forms, either as xanthine dehydrogenase, or as Xanthine Oxidase, and functions in purine degradation. Additional studies also suggest a role in adipogenesis, and a function as a structural protein in milk fat droplets in the lactating mammary gland. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
