Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 277203 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be active in membrane. Is expressed in pancreas. Orthologous to human TM4SF19 (transmembrane 4 L six family member 19). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele or one lacking the large extracellular loop exhibit inhibited formation of multinucleated osteoclasts, reduced bone resorption by osteoclasts, and increased trabecular bone mass and bone mineral density.
