OAZ2
An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Ornithine decarboxylase antizyme 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the OAZ2 gene.[1][2][3]
Ornithine decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of ornithine to putrescine in the first and apparently rate-limiting step in polyamine biosynthesis. The ornithine decarboxylase antizymes play a role in the regulation of polyamine synthesis by binding to and inhibiting ornithine decarboxylase. Antizyme expression is auto-regulated by polyamine-enhanced translational frameshifting. The antizyme encoded by this gene inhibits ornithine decarboxylase but does not accelerate its degradation.[3]
