Primary Identifier | MGI:1334446 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 19663 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable RNA binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including SMAD protein signal transduction; regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome; and response to oxidative stress. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic stress granule; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; gut; heart; retina; and urinary system. Orthologous to human RBPMS (RNA binding protein, mRNA processing factor). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit cardiomyocyte binucleation and cardiovascular development leading to noncompaction cardiomyopthy, patent ductus arteriosus, and postnatal lethality by P4.
