Protein Coding Gene : Lefty2 left-right determination factor 2

Primary Identifier  MGI:2443573 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  1 NCBI Gene Number  320202
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable cytokine activity. Predicted to be involved in anterior/posterior axis specification. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including compacted morula; embryo ectoderm; embryo mesoderm; gonad; and primitive streak. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital heart disease. Orthologous to human LEFTY2 (left-right determination factor 2).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for one null allele exhibit embryonic lethality, defects in axial patterning, absent notochord, somites, head folds and heart, and defects yolk sac development. Mice homozygous for another allele exhibit postnatal lethality and left isomerism. [provided by MGI curators]
