Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 229534 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables transcription coactivator activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including articular cartilage development; extracellular matrix organization; and positive regulation of chondrocyte proliferation. Located in chromatin; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in brain; diaphragm; gut; heart ventricle; and spinal cord ventricular layer. Orthologous to human PBXIP1 (PBX homeobox interacting protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit proportional dwafism. Mice homozygous for a conditional allele activated in chondrocytes exhibit improved induced pathogenic osteoarthritis. [provided by MGI curators] |
