Primary Identifier | MGI:1891342 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 64899 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables phosphatidate phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to insulin stimulus; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and triglyceride biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; genitourinary system; gut; skin; and trachea. Orthologous to human LPIN3 (lipin 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele show slightly decreased body weight, especially with age, and abnormal adipogenesis. [provided by MGI curators] |
