Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 70603 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA N-glycosylase activity; DNA binding activity; and MutSalpha complex binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of necroptotic process. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial adenomatous polyposis; familial adenomatous polyposis 2; stomach cancer; and stomach carcinoma. Orthologous to human MUTYH (mutY DNA glycosylase). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutant mice are viable and show no increase in tumor incidence relative to wild-type through 17 months of age.
