Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cerebrospinal fluid circulation; cilium assembly; and regulation of establishment of planar polarity. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in spinal cord and spinal cord floor plate. Orthologous to human JHY (junctional cadherin complex regulator). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit hydrocephalus, domed cranium, ataxia, weight loss, enlarged lateral ventricle, neuodegeneration, abnormal brain ependymal motile cilium and premature death.
