NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the prolyl 3-hydroxylase subfamily of 2-oxo-glutarate-dependent dioxygenases. These enzymes play a critical role in collagen chain assembly, stability and cross-linking by catalyzing post-translational 3-hydroxylation of proline residues. Mutations in this gene are associated with nonsyndromic severe myopia with cataract and vitreoretinal degeneration, and downregulation of this gene may play a role in breast cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
Uniprot Description
LEPREL1: Shows prolyl 3-hydroxylase activity catalyzing the post- translational formation of 3-hydroxyproline in -Xaa-Pro-Gly- sequences in collagens, especially types II, IV and V. Defects in LEPREL1 are the cause of myopia high with cataract and vitreoretinal degeneration (MCVD). A disorder characterized by severe myopia with variable expressivity of cataract and vitreoretinal degeneration. Some patients manifest lens subluxation, lens instability and retinal detachment. Belongs to the leprecan family.
