description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables microtubule binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of microtubule depolymerization. Part of microtubule associated complex. Is expressed in several structures, including diaphragm; heart; lung; skeletal musculature; and trunk dermomyotome. Orthologous to human TRIM54 (tripartite motif containing 54). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit normal cardiac function but are prone to cardiac rupture after acute myocardial infarction. [provided by MGI curators] |
