Primary Identifier | MGI:1196310 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 52477 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity. Involved in mitochondrial mRNA 3'-end processing. Predicted to be located in Cajal body and cytoplasm. Orthologous to human ANGEL2 (angel homolog 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and overtly normal but show a mild alteration of de novo translation in heart and liver mitochondria. Mitochondrial transcripts that undergo non-canonical RNA processing accumulate 3' phosphates, preventing their polyadenylation, causing a respiratory chain deficiency. [provided by MGI curators] |
