Description
Predicted to have carboxy-lyase activity and pyridoxal phosphate binding activity. Involved in brain development. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency; bipolar disorder; and inherited metabolic disorder. Is expressed in digestive system; muscle; nervous system; ovary; and pharyngeal arch. Orthologous to human DDC (dopa decarboxylase).
