| Primary Identifier | MGI:3524930 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 209294 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable cysteine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity and protease binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including keratinocyte differentiation; negative regulation of peptidase activity; and peptide cross-linking. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cornified envelope; extracellular space; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of peptidase inhibitor complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in peeling skin syndrome 4. Orthologous to human CSTA (cystatin A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a conditional alleles activated in the skin exhibit thin epidermis, reduced keratinocyte proliferation, decreased trabecular and compact bone mass, and decreased osteoblast cell number.
