Primary Identifier | MGI:2146335 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 224171 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protein homodimerization activity and protein phosphatase inhibitor activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of neuroblast proliferation and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytosol and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in chromosome. Is expressed in brain subventricular zone; hindlimb interdigital region; skin; and telencephalon. Orthologous to human CIP2A (cellular inhibitor of PP2A). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a hypomorphic allele display oligozoospermia, small epididymis and impaired spermatogonial progenitor cell maintenance. [provided by MGI curators] |
