Description
Exhibits epoxide hydrolase activity. Involved in hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation and venous blood vessel development. Predicted to localize to peroxisome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease; familial hypercholesterolemia; and hypertension. Is expressed in cardiovascular system; digestive system; neural tube; somite; and spinal cord. Orthologous to human EPHX2 (epoxide hydrolase 2).
