Summary
Enables arachidonate 12(S)-lipoxygenase activity and calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid metabolic process and lipid oxidation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including EVL; digestive system; epidermal cell; epidermis; and periderm. Orthologous to several human genes including ALOX12 (arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase, 12S type). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
