Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 19720 |
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; transcription coactivator activity; and ubiquitin-like protein transferase activity. Involved in innate immune response; negative regulation of viral transcription; and suppression of viral release by host. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and positive regulation of actin nucleation. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver; lung; and retina. Orthologous to human TRIM27 (tripartite motif containing 27). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene trap allele exhibit exhibit increased potassium/calcium channel activity and TCR-stimulated calcium influx in Th1 and Th2 CD4 T cells. Mice homozygous for another gene trap allele exhibit decreased incidence of chemically-induced tumors. [provided by MGI curators] |
