| Primary Identifier | MGI:1891706 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 56381 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity; single-stranded DNA binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in random inactivation of X chromosome. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription and positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; sensory organ; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human SPEN (spen family transcriptional repressor). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutant mice die during late gestation exhibiting morphological abnormalities of the heart, pancreas, and liver. Inactivation of this gene also affects the differentiation of B cells. [provided by MGI curators] |
