Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 22687 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables receptor tyrosine kinase binding activity; translation initiation factor binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including Cajal body organization; blastocyst growth; and nervous system development. Located in several cellular components, including growth cone; nuclear body; and perikaryon. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; liver; spleen; testis; and urinary system. Orthologous to human ZPR1 (ZPR1 zinc finger). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display embryonic lethality, fail to form a normal trophectoderm and fail to expand the inner cell mass. [provided by MGI curators] |
