DDAH1 dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 23576)
Symbol: DDAH1
Full name: dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: DDAH; DDAH-1; DDAHI; HEL-S-16
Summary: This gene belongs to the dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH) gene family. The encoded enzyme plays a role in nitric oxide generation by regulating cellular concentrations of methylarginines, which in turn inhibit nitric oxide synthase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
