Primary Identifier | MGI:2443039 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 214855 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables RNA stem-loop binding activity and chromatin binding activity. Involved in cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; positive regulation of T-helper 17 type immune response; and positive regulation of cytokine production. Acts upstream of or within chondrocyte differentiation; positive regulation of protein acetylation; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including ear; heart; hemolymphoid system; nervous system; and neural retina. Orthologous to human ARID5A (AT-rich interaction domain 5A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit reduced serum interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor levels following LPS treatment, and decreased susceptibility to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis along with decreased T-helper 17 cell number and increased IFN-gamma producing T cell number.
