Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.1.0)
Predicted to enable procollagen-lysine 5-dioxygenase activity. Predicted to be involved in collagen fibril organization; hydroxylysine biosynthetic process; and peptidyl-lysine hydroxylation. Predicted to be located in rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; collagen-containing extracellular matrix; and endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; cranium; and sensory organ. Used to study Bruck syndrome. Orthologous to human PLOD2 (procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 2).
