| Primary Identifier | MGI:2429955 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 209966 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable transposase activity. Predicted to be involved in non-replicative DNA transposition. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to human PGBD5 (piggyBac transposable element derived 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display normal cerebellar development and, in the context of medulloblastoma models, reduced tumor formation. [provided by MGI curators] |
