Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables chromatin binding activity. Involved in female meiosis chromosome separation; positive regulation of chromosome segregation; and positive regulation of chromosome separation. Acts upstream of or within meiotic chromosome condensation and meiotic chromosome segregation. Located in condensed nuclear chromosome. Part of condensin complex. Is active in chromosome and nucleus. Is expressed in blood vessel; brain ventricular layer; meninges; and nephrogenic zone. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary autosomal recessive microcephaly. Orthologous to human NCAPH (non-SMC condensin I complex subunit H). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice die before E12.5. [provided by MGI curators] |
