description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; long-term synaptic potentiation; and retina vasculature development in camera-type eye. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; mesothelium; nervous system; sensory organ; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma and ovarian carcinoma. Orthologous to human MIR23B (microRNA 23b). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted deletion are viable with no observed pathologies. [provided by MGI curators] |
