Primary Identifier | MGI:2385001 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 218952 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables actin filament binding activity. Involved in several processes, including focal adhesion assembly; integrin activation; and positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Located in stress fiber. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; immune system; and musculature. Orthologous to human FERMT2 (FERM domain containing kindlin 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mice are embryonic lethal at or before E7.5. [provided by MGI curators] |
