Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 12522 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell differentiation; regulation of cytokine production; and response to organic cyclic compound. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in alimentary system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; nervous system; and otocyst. Orthologous to human CD83 (CD83 molecule). PHENOTYPE: Mice lacking this gene develop, thrive, and reproduce normally, but exhibit defects in T cell development. [provided by MGI curators] |
