Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be a structural constituent of nuclear pore. Acts upstream of or within nervous system development; paraxial mesoderm development; and somite development. Part of nuclear pore. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; epiblast; male reproductive gland or organ; neural tube; and paraxial mesenchyme. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Galloway-Mowat syndrome and nephrotic syndrome type 18. Orthologous to human NUP133 (nucleoporin 133). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an ENU-induced allele exhibit embryonic lethality prior to E10.5, abnormal somitogenesis, pericardial edema, growth retardation, and abnormal neural development.
