Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable interleukin-17 receptor activity. Involved in negative regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition and negative regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; extraembryonic component; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 18 with or without anosmia. Orthologous to human IL17RD (interleukin 17 receptor D). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and show no obvious phenotype. A subset of mice homozygous for a gene-trapped allele display cochlear nucleus defects and abnormal auditory brainstem responses. [provided by MGI curators] |
