| Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 29817 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable insulin-like growth factor binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Acts upstream of or within inner ear development. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; eye; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human IGFBP7 (insulin like growth factor binding protein 7). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit retarded mammary gland developmental in virgin and adult females, reduced mammary gland size and alveolar density during pregnancy, precocious involution in lactating mammary glands, and abnormal milk composition.
