Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 72168 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable oxidoreductase activity, acting on NAD(P)H. Predicted to be involved in execution phase of apoptosis. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in cerebellum and heart. Orthologous to human AIFM3 (AIF family member 3). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knock-out mice are viable and do not exhibit neural tube defects. Another null allele shows increased fasting glucose levels and circulating aspartate transaminase level with abnormal cholesterol homeostasis. [provided by MGI curators] |
