Gmds Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables GDP-mannose 4,6-dehydratase activity. Predicted to be involved in 'de novo' GDP-L-fucose biosynthetic process and Notch signaling pathway. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ear; nervous system; respiratory system; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in open-angle glaucoma. Orthologous to human GMDS (GDP-mannose 4,6-dehydratase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gmds often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
