| Primary Identifier | MGI:2676807 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 387233 |
| Mgi Type | miRNA gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables mRNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing; nervous system development; and positive regulation of exit from mitosis. Part of RISC complex. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; liver; nervous system; pancreas; and spleen. Orthologous to human MIR124-1 (microRNA 124-1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted mutation exhibit impaired hippocampal axogenesis and retinal cone cell survival. [provided by MGI curators] |
