Primary Identifier | MGI:1354701 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 50723 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of interleukin-4 production. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including extraembryonic component; gonad; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and stomach. Orthologous to human ICOSLG (inducible T cell costimulator ligand). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene exhibit defects in the humoral immune response associated with an impaired interactions between T and B cells. [provided by MGI curators] |
