| Primary Identifier | MGI:109177 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 12509 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable complement binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of angiogenesis; negative regulation of fibroblast growth factor production; and negative regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of activation of membrane attack complex. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including Meckel's cartilage; nervous system; neural retina; skeleton; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal carcinoma and ovarian cancer. Orthologous to human CD59 (CD59 molecule (CD59 blood group)). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit abnormal complement pathway, abnormal response to injury, altered susceptibility to viral infection, and abnormal CD4+ T cell morphology and physiology.
