Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 75504 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in flagellated sperm motility. Is active in axonemal B tubule inner sheath and sperm flagellum. Is expressed in several structures, including gastrocnemius muscle; liver; lung; nervous system; and spleen. Used to study Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease intermediate type. Orthologous to human CFAP276 (cilia and flagella associated protein 276). PHENOTYPE: A certain point mutation results in decreased body weight and motor and sensor neuropathy in the hind limbs. Male mice for a null allele exhibit normal fertility.
