Primary Identifier | MGI:1352452 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 11819 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in lymph vessel development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including blood vessel development; nervous system development; and regionalization. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study congenital diaphragmatic hernia and dilated cardiomyopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XX sex reversal 5. Orthologous to human NR2F2 (nuclear receptor subfamily 2 group F member 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation exhibit impaired angiogenesis and heart development with hemorrhagic brains and hearts, and die around embryonic day 10. About 5% of heterozygotes share the hemorrhagic phenotype at embryonic day 9.5. [provided by MGI curators] |
