Primary Identifier | MGI:87879 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 11428 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables aconitate hydratase activity and iron-responsive element binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including intestinal absorption; intracellular iron ion homeostasis; and regulation of translation. Located in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; musculature; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human ACO1 (aconitase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display no obvious phenotypic abnormalities. [provided by MGI curators] |
