Primary Identifier | MGI:1913337 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 66087 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to contribute to membrane insertase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein insertion into ER membrane by stop-transfer membrane-anchor sequence and tail-anchored membrane protein insertion into ER membrane. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be part of EMC complex. Is expressed in lung. Orthologous to human EMC3 (ER membrane protein complex subunit 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an inducible conditional allele exhibit thin retinal outer nuclear layer with retinal degeneration and reduced Rho trafficking to the outer segment.
