{"symbol":"AOC1","synonyms":["DAO1","ABP","DAO","KAO","ABP1"],"name":"amine oxidase, copper containing 1","description":"This gene encodes a metal-binding membrane glycoprotein that oxidatively deaminates putrescine, histamine, and related compounds. The encoded protein is inhibited by amiloride, a diuretic that acts by closing epithelial sodium ion channels. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
