| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in cellular response to glucose starvation; endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response; and negative regulation of myotube differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cell-cell adhesion mediated by cadherin; intracellular distribution of mitochondria; and type B pancreatic cell maturation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; lacrimal gland; and limb mesenchyme. Orthologous to human BHLHA15 (basic helix-loop-helix family member a15). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene have a generally normal phenotype. Abnormalities exist in the acinar cells of various glands and become progressively worse with age. [provided by MGI curators] |
