Primary Identifier | MGI:2442892 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 218335 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable phospholipid scramblase activity. Predicted to be involved in apoptotic process and plasma membrane phospholipid scrambling. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in endomembrane system and membrane. Is expressed in embryo; retina; and white fat. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carcinoma (multiple) and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human CLPTM1L (CLPTM1 like). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit partial prenatal and neonatal lethality; however, surviving mice are fertile and overtly normal with no significant alterations in the development, maturation and differentiation of B-lymphocytes or production of antibodies by antibody secreting cells.
