Primary Identifier | MGI:1861774 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 56878 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity; poly(A) binding activity; and poly(U) RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA replication. Predicted to be part of ribonucleoprotein complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human RBMS1 (RNA binding motif single stranded interacting protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Only about half the expected number of mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene are produced in matings of heterozygotes. Embryo sizes are reduced. Females have smaller than normal uteri and decreased levels of progesterone during estrus. [provided by MGI curators] |
