    Summary
    Enables metallopeptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intracellular monoatomic cation homeostasis; regulation of axon diameter; and skeletal muscle fiber development. Located in membrane. Orthologous to human KEL (Kell metallo-endopeptidase (Kell blood group)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    What's a GeneRIF?
    1. B cells require signaling from IFN-alpha/beta to produce alloantibodies to the human KEL glycoprotein in mice
      Title: B cells require Type 1 interferon to produce alloantibodies to transfused KEL-expressing red blood cells in mice.
    2. Absence of Kell was accompanied by changes in erythrocyte K(+), Mg(2+), Na(+) & Ca(2+) transport associated with changes in mean cellular volume & corpuscular hemoglobin concentration mean. Kel loss increased Mg(2+) permeability.
      Title: Ablation of the Kell/Xk complex alters erythrocyte divalent cation homeostasis.
    3. The targeted disruption of Kel in mouse enabled us to identify phenotypes that would not be easily detected in humans lacking Kell glycoprotein.

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
