Primary Identifier | MGI:2150656 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 140481 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables hydrolase activity, hydrolyzing N-glycosyl compounds and mannosidase activity. Predicted to be involved in N-glycan processing. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in olfactory epithelium; retina outer nuclear layer; skeletal muscle; and vomeronasal organ. Orthologous to human MAN2A2 (mannosidase alpha class 2A member 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null males are infertile due to a defect during spermatogenesis involving the premature release of germ cells from the seminiferous tubules into the epididymis.
