Primary Identifier | MGI:3028075 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 270004 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in anatomical structure morphogenesis; cell differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo ectoderm; hair follicle; major salivary gland; sensory organ; and urinary system. Orthologous to human FOXI2 (forkhead box I2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele are viable and fertile with no gross abnormalities. [provided by MGI curators] |
