| Primary Identifier | MGI:2135958 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 235623 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable sterol binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cholesterol metabolic process; regulation of lipid biosynthetic process; and response to insulin. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in 1st branchial arch maxillary component; brain; heart; liver; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SCAP (SREBF chaperone). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a transgenic gene disruption exhibit decreased body size. [provided by MGI curators] |
