| Background | This gene encodes the enzyme homogentisate 1,2 dioxygenase. This enzyme is involved in the catabolism of the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine. Mutations in this gene are the cause of the autosomal recessive metabolism disorder alkaptonuria.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010], |
| Function | catalytic activity:Homogentisate + O(2) = 4-maleylacetoacetate.,cofactor:Iron.,disease:Defects in HGD are the cause of alkaptonuria (AKU) [MIM:203500]. AKU is an autosomal recessive error of metabolism characterized by an increase in the level of homogentisic acid. The clinical manifestations of AKU are urine that turns dark on standing and alkalinization, black ochronotic pigmentation of cartilage and collagenous tissues, and spine arthritis.,pathway:Amino-acid degradation; L-phenylalanine degradation; acetoacetic acid and fumarate from L-phenylalanine: step 4/6.,similarity:Belongs to the homogentisate dioxygenase family.,tissue specificity:Highest expression in the prostate, small intestine, colon, kidney and liver., |
| Subcellular location | cytosol,extracellular exosome, |
| Expression | Highest expression in the prostate, small intestine, colon, kidney and liver. |
