Primary Identifier | MGI:1330312 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 17149 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in RNA splicing and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of catalytic step 2 spliceosome and exon-exon junction subcomplex mago-y14. Is expressed in intestine; liver; spleen; telencephalon; and testis. Orthologous to human MAGOH (mago homolog, exon junction complex subunit). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mutation in this gene is embryonic lethal and heterozygous mice are postnatal lethal with incomplete penetrance with reduced body size and microcephaly.
