| Primary Identifier | MGI:1918957 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 71707 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables prenyltransferase activity. Involved in menaquinone metabolic process and phylloquinone metabolic process. Is active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in embryo. Used to study Schnyder corneal dystrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Schnyder corneal dystrophy. Orthologous to human UBIAD1 (UbiA prenyltransferase domain containing 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit embryonic lethality, reduced embryo size, failure to form the primitive streak, no mesoderm and inability to synthesize menaquinone 4.
