Primary Identifier | MGI:3582583 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 212518 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables nucleic acid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within protein import into nucleus. Located in several cellular components, including cytosol; nucleolus; and vesicle. Is expressed in cerebellum; embryo; and olfactory epithelium. Orthologous to human SPRN (shadow of prion protein). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit some embryonic lethality shortly after implantation, reduced weight at birth, abnormal lactation, and mammary gland development.
