Gene:
lysyl oxidase-like 4
Gene ID:
199515
Symbol:
LOXL4
Species:
1000
Description:
LOXL4 is a member of the lysyl oxidase (LOX; MIM 153455) family of amine oxidases that catalyze the final enzymatic step in the lysine-derived cross-links of collagen fibrils and insoluble elastic fibers within the extracellular matrix. These enzymes may also contribute to developmental regulation, senescence, tumor suppression, cell growth control, and chemotaxis.[supplied by OMIM]
