Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 15257 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity; protein tyrosine kinase activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in adherens junction assembly; camera-type eye morphogenesis; and neuron differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including anterior/posterior pattern specification; intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage by p53 class mediator; and smoothened signaling pathway. Located in PML body; cytoplasm; and nuclear speck. Is expressed in several structures, including forebrain ventricular layer and future forebrain. Orthologous to human HIPK1 (homeodomain interacting protein kinase 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice are viable and fertile, do not develop spontaneous tumors, and are resistant to DMBA-induced skin tumor formation. [provided by MGI curators] |
