Primary Identifier | MGI:2682306 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 234344 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and telomerase RNA binding activity. Involved in RNA stabilization. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of sno(s)RNA-containing ribonucleoprotein complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in melanoma. Orthologous to human NAF1 (nuclear assembly factor 1 ribonucleoprotein). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit complete embryonic lethality between implantation and placentation while heterozygotes show no evident ribosomal pathology.
