Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.1.0)
Enables gamma-glutamyl carboxylase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of neurotransmitter secretion; negative regulation of testosterone biosynthetic process; and peptidyl-glutamic acid carboxylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to insulin stimulus; negative regulation of bone development; and type B pancreatic cell proliferation. Is active in endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Is expressed in liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in combined deficiency of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors 1. Orthologous to human GGCX (gamma-glutamyl carboxylase).
