Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 69906 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables FAD transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in mitochondrial FAD transmembrane transport. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in embryo; metencephalon floor plate; and skeletal muscle. Orthologous to human SLC25A32 (solute carrier family 25 member 32). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit embryonic lethality and fully penetrant cranial neural tube defects that can be partially rescued by maternal calcium formate supplementation. Homozygous KO also results in abnormal folate, amino acid and carnitine levels. [provided by MGI curators] |
