| Primary Identifier | MGI:109517 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 20389 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in respiratory gaseous exchange by respiratory system. Located in cytoplasm and extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including lung; lung surfactant; and main bronchus epithelium. Used to study desquamative interstitial pneumonia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; lung disease (multiple); and respiratory syncytial virus infectious disease. Orthologous to human SFTPC (surfactant protein C). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display respiratory abnormalities similar to emphysema. [provided by MGI curators] |
