| Primary Identifier | MGI:1928765 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 56788 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables hedgehog family protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chondrocyte differentiation involved in endochondral bone morphogenesis; positive regulation of chondrocyte proliferation; and positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; central nervous system; neural ectoderm; sensory organ; and skeleton. Orthologous to human SCUBE2 (signal peptide, CUB domain and EGF like domain containing 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation are smaller than controls. Mice also exhibit defective endochondral bone formation and impaired Ihh-mediated chondrocyte differentiation. [provided by MGI curators] |
