Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 17299 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable internal mRNA (guanine-N7-)-methyltransferase activity and tRNA (guanine(46)-N7)-methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in tRNA (guanine-N7)-methylation and tRNA stabilization. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleolus; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of tRNA (m7G46) methyltransferase complex. Orthologous to human METTL1 (methyltransferase 1, tRNA methylguanosine). PHENOTYPE: Mice with lost of expression in limb bud mesenchyme display short limbs, reduced body size, impaired endochondral bone formation, and decreased bone mass. [provided by MGI curators] |
