Primary Identifier | MGI:2444593 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 320717 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in peptidyl-serine dephosphorylation and regulation of ubiquinone biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cardiovascular system; connective tissue; genitourinary system; and gut. Orthologous to human PPTC7 (protein phosphatase targeting COQ7). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display neonatal lethality with hypoketotic hyperglycemia and defects in mitochondrial biogenesis. [provided by MGI curators] |
