Primary Identifier | MGI:1926395 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 17 | NCBI Gene Number | 60532 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA modification; mRNA processing; and regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Located in cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. Part of RNA N6-methyladenosine methyltransferase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; embryo mesoderm; hemolymphoid system gland; hindlimb; and jaw epithelium. Orthologous to human WTAP (WT1 associated protein). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a mutation display lethality during embryogenesis with abnormalities appearing during gastrulation.
