Primary Identifier | MGI:1915105 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 67855 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables aspartic-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in protein processing and skin development. Is expressed in anterior naris and external naris. Orthologous to human ASPRV1 (aspartic peptidase retroviral like 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted null allele develop fine skin wrinkles at the side of their body without any apparent epidermal differentiation defect. [provided by MGI curators] |
