description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and zinc ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including face development; fibroblast migration; and platelet-derived growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human ZFAND5 (zinc finger AN1-type containing 5). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display resistance to age related obesity and resistance to induced muscular atrophy.
