Function |
Hydrolase probably involved in steroid biosynthesis. May play a role in apoptosis. Has adenosine phosphoramidase activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16762638, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18653718}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16762638, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18653718}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
High expression in liver and pancreas. Expression is significantly down-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16762638}.
