Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable riboflavin kinase activity. Involved in flavin adenine dinucleotide biosynthetic process and riboflavin metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of NAD(P)H oxidase activity and reactive oxygen species metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; facial bone primordium; heart; respiratory system; and urinary system. Orthologous to human RFK (riboflavin kinase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele die in utero prior to E7.5. [provided by MGI curators] |
