Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable transcription coactivator activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus and sarcoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; early embryo; genitourinary system; heart; and limb. Orthologous to human SERTAD1 (SERTA domain containing 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit impaired glucose tolerance and decreased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion associated with decreased islet number and beta cell mass.
