description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of dendritic cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in nuclear membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human TMEM176B (transmembrane protein 176B). PHENOTYPE: Most mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit severe sporadic ataxia and a small cerebellum associated with abnormal cerebellar lobulation, loss of the internal granule cell layer, poor formation of the external germinal layer, and disorganized Purkinje cells.
