Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable carnosine N-methyltransferase activity and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in carnosine metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within methylation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; heart; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and skeletal muscle. Orthologous to human CARNMT1 (carnosine N-methyltransferase 1). PHENOTYPE: Micr homozygous for a null or catalytically inactive allele die between E13.5 and E15.5. [provided by MGI curators] |
