| Primary Identifier | MGI:97858 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 19411 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity; chromatin binding activity; and nuclear retinoid X receptor binding activity. Involved in growth plate cartilage chondrocyte growth and limb development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cartilage development; embryonic morphogenesis; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and limb. Orthologous to human RARG (retinoic acid receptor gamma). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit stunted growth, homeotic transformations of the rostral axial skeleton and tracheal cartilage, Harderian gland agenesis, high postnatal mortality, and male sterility.
