Primary Identifier | MGI:1347094 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 26430 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase activity. Acts upstream of or within DNA damage response and detection of bacterium. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; and gut. Orthologous to human PARG (poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for one allele of this gene are hypersensitive to alkylating agents and ionizing radiation and susceptible to streptozotocin induced diabetes and endotoxic shock. Mice homozygous for a second allele display embryonic lethality and fail tohatch from the zona pellucida. [provided by MGI curators] |
