Primary Identifier | MGI:1330276 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 12848 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables transcription corepressor activity. Acts upstream of or within blastocyst growth; negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Part of COP9 signalosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human COPS2 (COP9 signalosome subunit 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene die as embryos very soon after implantation. [provided by MGI curators] |
