Summary
[Homo sapiens] ARG1 expression induced by intracellular pathogens in mouse classically activated macrophages (CAMs) through the TLR pathway, suppressing nitric oxide production and thwarting effective immunity independent of the STAT6 pathway.
[Homo sapiens] PI3K/PTEN-regulated extracellular ARG1 acts as a paracrine regulator of inflammation and immunity. Demonstrated in mice.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000118520:
Arginase catalyzes the hydrolysis of arginine to ornithine and urea. At least two isoforms of mammalian arginase exist (types I and II) which differ in their tissue distribution, subcellular localization, immunologic crossreactivity and physiologic function. The type I isoform encoded by this gene, is a cytosolic enzyme and expressed predominantly in the liver as a component of the urea cycle. Inherited deficiency of this enzyme results in argininemia, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hyperammonemia. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
