Primary Identifier | MGI:1099835 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 17 | NCBI Gene Number | 108077 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable 3'-5' RNA helicase activity. Predicted to be involved in nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process, 3'-5' exonucleolytic nonsense-mediated decay and rescue of stalled ribosome. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of Ski complex. Is expressed in embryo. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in trichohepatoenteric syndrome 2. Orthologous to human SKIC2 (SKI2 subunit of superkiller complex). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a transgenic gene disruption exhibit embryonic lethality at E6. [provided by MGI curators] |
