Primary Identifier | MGI:1096380 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 19171 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable endopeptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within T cell proliferation and cell morphogenesis. Part of proteasome core complex and spermatoproteasome complex. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; cerebral cortex; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in proteosome-associated autoinflammatory syndrome 5. Orthologous to human PSMB10 (proteasome 20S subunit beta 10). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mice have a reduced number of splenic CD8 T cells with defects in proliferation and an altered T cell receptor repertoire to viral antigens. [provided by MGI curators] |
