Primary Identifier | MGI:1914718 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 67468 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protein kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of neuron differentiation; positive regulation of protein kinase activity; and regulation of protein localization. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cerebral cortex; cranial ganglion; musculoskeletal system; and retina. Orthologous to human MMD (monocyte to macrophage differentiation associated). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit impaired macrophage differentiation, increased macrophage apoptosis, and decreased susceptibility to induced arthritis.
