Primary Identifier | MGI:2676899 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 387142 |
Mgi Type | miRNA gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity. 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 vibrissa. Orthologous to human MIR24-1 (microRNA 24-1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele of Mir24-1 and Mir24-2 exhibit increased keratinocyte proliferation and hair regrowth. [provided by MGI curators] |
