Primary Identifier | MGI:1923725 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 381339 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in myotube cell development involved in skeletal muscle regeneration; negative regulation of myoblast differentiation; and negative regulation of myoblast fusion. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human TMEM182 (transmembrane protein 182). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice show increased body weight, muscle mass, muscle fiber number, and muscle fiber diameter and accelerated skeletal muscle regeneration. [provided by MGI curators] |
