About ALOX12B

Cytogenetic location: 17p13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:8,072,636-8,087,716 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 103 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in skin (RPKM 26.9) and esophagus (RPKM 2.9).

Summary

This gene encodes an Enzyme involved in the conversion of arachidonic acid to 12R-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid. Mutations in this gene are associated with nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
