Primary Identifier | MGI:1920672 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 73422 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human PROX2 (prospero homeobox 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit normal growth, survival and fertility, with no detectable defects in eye structure or horizontal cell development in the retina.
