| Primary Identifier | MGI:2685355 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 244698 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Predicted to enable ferroxidase activity. Predicted to be involved in intracellular iron ion homeostasis and iron ion transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within multicellular organismal-level iron ion homeostasis. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; hippocampal formation; integumental system; and retina. Orthologous to human HEPHL1 (hephaestin like 1). PHENOTYPE: Mutations in this gene result in vibrissae and coat abnormalities. Some alleles also affect coat color, immune response to specific antigens or develop B cell lymphoma.
