| Primary Identifier | MGI:97931 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 19773 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in mammary gland development; regulation of apoptotic process; and spermatogenesis. Acts upstream of or within prostate gland growth and regulation of nitric oxide mediated signal transduction. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including Harderian gland; alimentary system; genitourinary system; immune system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human RLN1 (relaxin 1) and RLN2 (relaxin 2). PHENOTYPE: Inactivation of this locus is compatible with fertility but not normal mammary gland development. Postpartum, homozygous mutant females exhibit slight nipples that are insufficient for suckling. [provided by MGI curators] |
