Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 57279 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable acyl carnitine transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer and cortical plate. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency. Orthologous to human SLC25A20 (solute carrier family 25 member 20). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit placenta hemorrhage and complete preweaning lethality. [provided by MGI curators] |
