Primary Identifier | MGI:1915133 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 67883 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable NAD+ binding activity; UDP-glucuronate decarboxylase activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in UDP-D-xylose biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in forelimb and hindlimb. Orthologous to human UXS1 (UDP-glucuronate decarboxylase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele die prenatally. Heterozygous mice exhibit an increased mean serum IgG2a response to ovalbumin challenge when compared with that of controls.
