Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.0.0)
Enables phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase activity. Involved in L-serine biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including G1 to G0 transition; nervous system development; and oxoacid metabolic process. Located in myelin sheath. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Neu-Laxova syndrome 1; PHGDH deficiency; and amino acid metabolic disorder. Orthologous to human PHGDH (phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase).
