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, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Contributes to DNA binding activity. Involved in glucose mediated signaling pathway and regulation of primary metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is active in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; gut; liver; metanephros; and nose. Used to study irritable bowel syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human MLXIPL (MLX interacting protein like). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit reduced glycolysis and lipogenesis and severe simple carbohydrate intolerance. [provided by MGI curators] |
