Gene: [02p25/ODC1] ornithine decarboxylase 1;
FUN | The enzyme catalyzes the convertion of L-ornithine into putrescine. This is the first (limiting) stage of polyamine synthesis: L-ornithine = putrescine + CO(2)." |
PRO | Probe pODC10/2H (a 2.0 kb cDNA fragment) has been cloned in pBR322 at EcoRI site. In Northern blotting, the probe for ODC identifies one major mRNA species (2.2 kb); in Southern blotting, the probe identifies only two genomic ODC sequences that are located in different chromosomes. Thus, ODC2 (or (pseudogene also symbolized ODCP) is located in Chr 7q3." |
