Summary
Enables carboxylesterase activity. Acts upstream of or within protein glycosylation. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is expressed in liver. Orthologous to human CES2 (carboxylesterase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
Expression
Biased expression in liver adult (RPKM 135.2), duodenum adult (RPKM 127.9) and 5 other tissues See more

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
