| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Enables bHLH transcription factor binding activity. Involved in cerebral cortex development; mitotic chromosome condensation; and regulation of chromosome segregation. Acts upstream of or within inner cell mass cell proliferation. Located in condensed nuclear chromosome. Part of condensin complex. Is active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including axial musculature; brain; hemolymphoid system; liver; and nasal cavity epithelium. Orthologous to human NCAPG2 (non-SMC condensin II complex subunit G2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null embryos exhibit impaired inner cell mass expansion and die shortly after implantation and prior to gastrulation and blood cell development. [provided by MGI curators] |
