Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 21432 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; protein kinase binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity. Involved in activation of protein kinase B activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of gene expression; regulation of stem cell population maintenance; and somatic stem cell population maintenance. Located in cell cortex; ooplasm; and pronucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and seminiferous cord. Orthologous to human TCL1A (TCL1 family AKT coactivator A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele display a maternal fertility defect that leads to a progressive reduction in litter size and a shortened reproductive lifespan. Reduced female fertility is caused by impaired blastomere proliferation in the early preimplantation embryo. [provided by MGI curators] |
