Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable mRNA binding activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of translation. Predicted to be part of ribonucleoprotein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including early embryo; facial prominence; liver; oocyte; and spleen. Orthologous to human LSM14B (LSM family member 14B).
