|
| 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. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10493931}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21898353}. Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21898353}. Note=Translocates from cytosol to mitochondrion upon IL-1beta stimulation in chondrocytes.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Detected in heart, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas, and at very low levels in brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10493931}.
