description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in glucose homeostasis and positive regulation of myoblast differentiation. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of chondrocyte differentiation; positive regulation of chondrocyte proliferation; and positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo mesenchyme; intraembryonic coelom; limb bud; male reproductive gland or organ; and skeletal musculature. Orthologous to human MUSTN1 (musculoskeletal, embryonic nuclear protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null females show higher collagen content after chemically induced muscle injury.
