Plod - procollagen lysyl hydroxylase
Enables procollagen galactosyltransferase activity and procollagen glucosyltransferase activity. Involved in growth of a germarium-derived egg chamber. Located in endoplasmic reticulum; extracellular space; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including egg chamber; embryonic/larval anal pad; embryonic/larval fat body; embryonic/larval hemocyte; and fat body primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome kyphoscoliotic type 1. Orthologous to several human genes including PLOD1 (procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 1) and PLOD3 (procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 3).
