Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 414069 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables initiator methionyl aminopeptidase activity. Involved in protein processing. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human ACTMAP (actin maturation protease). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit decreased muscle strength and function, shorter skeletal muscle actin filaments, and centrally nucleated skeletal muscle fibers.
