Primary Identifier | MGI:99414 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 15904 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Involved in circadian rhythm. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including gland morphogenesis; negative regulation of cell differentiation; and nervous system development. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; immune system; sensory organ; and urinary system. Used to study osteoporosis. Orthologous to human ID4 (inhibitor of DNA binding 4). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene have reduced brains and abnormal telencephalon structures.
