Ecel1 - endothelin converting enzyme-like 1

Predicted to enable metalloendopeptidase activity. Involved in intracellular signal transduction and neuropeptide signaling pathway. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in distal arthrogryposis type 5D. Orthologous to human ECEL1 (endothelin converting enzyme like 1).
