Myorg - myogenesis regulating glycosidase (putative)

Predicted to enable hydrolase activity, hydrolyzing O-glycosyl compounds. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of insulin-like growth factor receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of protein kinase B signaling; and skeletal muscle fiber development. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nuclear membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; connective tissue; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in basal ganglia calcification. Orthologous to human MYORG (myogenesis regulating glycosidase (putative)).
