Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Can metabolize asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) via transamination to alpha-keto-delta-(NN-dimethylguanidino) valeric acid (DMGV). ADMA is a potent inhibitor of nitric-oxide (NO) synthase, and this activity provides mechanism through which the kidney regulates blood pressure. {ECO:0000269PubMed:23023372}.
Subcellular Localization Mitochondrion {ECO:0000250}.
