Primary Identifier | MGI:105369 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 12412 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in chromocenter; pericentric heterochromatin; and pronucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CBX1 (chromobox 1). PHENOTYPE: An uncharacterized gene trap insertion does not result in an obvious phenotype during the observation period early in life, although abnormalities may still develop at older age.
