Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor and mitotic spindle assembly. Located in nucleus. Part of Myb complex. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early conceptus; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and skin. Used to study acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Orthologous to human MYBL2 (MYB proto-oncogene like 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene die as embryos shortly after implantation. [provided by MGI curators] |
