| Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 14622 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable gap junction channel activity. Acts upstream of or within labyrinthine layer morphogenesis; spongiotrophoblast differentiation; and trophoblast giant cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in gap junction and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of connexin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; reproductive system; sensory organ; and skin. Orthologous to human GJB5 (gap junction protein beta 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit some embryonic lethality, reduced weight and reduced placental development. [provided by MGI curators] |
