description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lens development in camera-type eye; neuroblast migration; and roof of mouth development. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Used to study Cornelia de Lange syndrome. Orthologous to human PDS5A (PDS5 cohesin associated factor A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit neonatal lethality associated with respiratory distress, abnormal heart development, abnormal skeletal development, kidney agenesis, and delayed enteric nervous system development.
