N(G),N(G)-dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 2 (Q6MG60)

Uniprot ID Q6MG60
Protein Name N(G),N(G)-dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 2
Gene Name Ddah2
Species Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
Signal peptide(a) N Secretome P(b)
Function Hydrolyzes N(G),N(G)-dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) and N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (MMA) which act as inhibitors of NOS. Has therefore a role in the regulation of nitric oxide generation (By similarity). .

Back
(a) The Signal peptide D-score cutoff for "YES"(having signal peptide) is 0.45.
(b) Non-classically secreted proteins should obtain an NN-score(Neural Networks score) exceeding the normal threshold of 0.5, but not at the same time be predicted to contain a signal peptide.
