| Primary Identifier | MGI:1926157 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 226641 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; identical protein binding activity; and protein heterodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo mesenchyme; eye; liver; long bone; and tooth. Used to study achromatopsia 7. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in achromatopsia 7. Orthologous to human ATF6 (activating transcription factor 6). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit increased sensitivity to dithiothreitol, thapsigargin, and tunicamycin. Mice homozygous for a conditional allele activated in islet cells exhibit reduced sensitivity to TUDCA. [provided by MGI curators] |
