Chromosome | X | NCBI Gene Number | 66142 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be involved in central nervous system development. Located in mitochondrion. Part of respiratory chain complex IV. Is active in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; heart; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in linear skin defects with multiple congenital anomalies 2. Orthologous to human COX7B (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 7B). PHENOTYPE: Male chimeras hemizygous for a gene trapped allele appear normal at E6.5. However, no embryos fully derived from mutant ES cells can be generated. [provided by MGI curators] |
