The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the fourth enzymatic step, the ubiquinone-mediated oxidation of dihydroorotate to orotate, in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis.
- This protein is a mitochondrial protein located on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane.
- Inhibitors of this enzyme are used to treat autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis.
