Primary Identifier | MGI:1194500 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 226251 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables actin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within axon guidance and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in actin cytoskeleton. Is active in postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; lateral plate mesoderm; and node. Orthologous to human ABLIM1 (actin binding LIM protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Mutant mice lacking the retina-specific isoform are healthy, fertile, and show no defects in retinal development or retinofugal projections. [provided by MGI curators] |
