Primary Identifier | MGI:109369 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 15441 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and nucleosome binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to hypoxia; heterochromatin organization; and regulation of nucleus size. Predicted to be located in nuclear speck. Predicted to be part of nucleosome. Predicted to be active in chromosome and nucleus. Orthologous to human HP1BP3 (heterochromatin protein 1 binding protein 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit postnatal lethality and reduced body weight. [provided by MGI curators] |
