Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in positive regulation of myoblast differentiation. Acts upstream of or within axon guidance and smoothened signaling pathway. Located in growth cone and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human BOC (BOC cell adhesion associated, oncogene regulated). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation display abnormal commissural axon projections. [provided by MGI curators] |
