Primary Identifier | MGI:1928953 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 56221 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables cytokine activity. Involved in positive regulation of angiogenesis and positive regulation of inflammatory response. Acts upstream of or within chemotaxis and positive regulation of eosinophil migration. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma and rhinitis. Orthologous to human CCL24 (C-C motif chemokine ligand 24). PHENOTYPE: Mutant mice are born at the expected Mendelian frequency and appear healthy and normal. [provided by MGI curators] |
