Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 74549 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable cohesin loader activity and double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in maintenance of mitotic sister chromatid cohesion. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell division and chromosome segregation. Part of chromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human MAU2 (MAU2 sister chromatid cohesion factor). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit complete embryonic lethality during organogenesis.
