| Primary Identifier | MGI:1100089 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 21943 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables identical protein binding activity; receptor ligand activity; and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily binding activity. Involved in several processes, including intracellular signaling cassette; positive regulation of secretion by cell; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to cytokine stimulus; mammary gland development; and positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in bone; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; incisor; and rib. Used to study autosomal recessive osteopetrosis 2 and osteoporosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive osteopetrosis 2 and osteoporosis. Orthologous to human TNFSF11 (TNF superfamily member 11). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit a failure of tooth eruption, osteopetrosis, failure to lactate and arrested alveolar bud differentiation during pregnancy.
