Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 338366 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable cargo receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within chondrocyte development; collagen fibril organization; and positive regulation of bone mineralization. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; embryo mesenchyme; heart; nervous system; and nose. Orthologous to human MIA3 (MIA SH3 domain ER export factor 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous null for the large isoform display complete perinatal lethality with impaired collagen secretion, intracellular collagen aggregates, short limbed dwarfism, and arrest of chondrocyte maturation.
