Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to contribute to actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin nucleation. Located in lamellipodium. Is expressed in lower jaw tooth and tooth. Orthologous to human ARPC3 (actin related protein 2/3 complex subunit 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a transposon-induced allele develop only to the blastocyst stage and show defects in trophoblast outgrowth and in the dynamics of actin accumulation. Mice heterozygous for the same transposon-induced allele and a knock-out allele showimpaired trophoblast outgrowth activity. [provided by MGI curators] |
