Summary | This gene encodes a member of the D-isomer specific 2-hydroxyacid dehydrogenase family of proteins. The encoded protein catalyzes three enzymatic reactions: the conversion of hydroxypyruvate to D-glycerate as well as the reverse reaction, and the conversion of glyoxylate to glycolate. Homozygous knockout mice exhibit elevated synthesis of oxalate and glycerate. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]. |
