| Primary Identifier | MGI:3618755 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 723960 |
| Mgi Type | miRNA gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; cellular response to phenylalanine; and long-term synaptic potentiation. Is expressed in bone; brain; gut; and limb. Orthologous to human MIR24-2 (microRNA 24-2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele of Mir24-1 and Mir24-2 exhibit increased keratinocyte proliferation and hair regrowth. [provided by MGI curators] |
