Primary Identifier | MGI:2384752 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 192173 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be involved in regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic stress granule and nucleus. Is expressed in alveolus epithelium; lung; and lung epithelium. Orthologous to human MCRIP1 (MAPK regulated corepressor interacting protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Most mice homozygous for a knock-out allele die in the neonatal stage due to atelectasis and respiratory failure associated with decreased surfactant secretion and abnormal alveolar lamellar body morphology.
