Primary Identifier | MGI:1919522 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 99349 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ATPase activator activity; ferrous iron binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in protein histidyl modification to diphthamide. Is active in actin cytoskeleton. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; heart; liver; lung; and spleen. Orthologous to human DNAJC24 (DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member C24). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an ENU-induced mutation are retarded in growth and development, and generally die before birth; those that survive long enough to initiate digit formation show a distinctive polydactyly phenotype on their hind limbs.
