Primary Identifier | MGI:1194497 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 17 | NCBI Gene Number | 21815 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables chromatin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of retinoic acid receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of amacrine cell differentiation; and regionalization. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early conceptus; embryo ectoderm; and genitourinary system. Used to study otitis media. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in holoprosencephaly and holoprosencephaly 4. Orthologous to human TGIF1 (TGFB induced factor homeobox 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display normal growth, behavior and fertility. [provided by MGI curators] |
