Primary Identifier | MGI:1913833 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 66583 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in RNA catabolic process and RNA processing. Predicted to act upstream of or within rRNA processing. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleolus. Predicted to be part of nuclear exosome (RNase complex). Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; early conceptus; gonad; liver; and submandibular gland primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 1F. Orthologous to human EXOSC1 (exosome component 1). PHENOTYPE: Embryos homozygous for a knock-out allele are able to implant and form an egg cylinder but are developmentally delayed, show increased epiblast cell apoptosis, and fail to initiate gastrulation.
