Primary Identifier | MGI:103072 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 22793 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Involved in cell-matrix adhesion; integrin-mediated signaling pathway; and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to type II interferon. Located in focal adhesion and phagocytic vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut; and heart. Orthologous to human ZYX (zyxin). PHENOTYPE: Mice lacking functional copies of this gene are viable, fertile, and develop normally. [provided by MGI curators] |
