| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables chromatin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within chromatin organization; glutathione metabolic process; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; brain; genitourinary system; gut gland; and hemolymphoid system gland. Orthologous to human HMGN5 (high mobility group nucleosome binding domain 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit decreased prepulse inhibition, abnormal erythrocyte cell number, abnormal glucose tolerance, decreased granulocyte, increased CD8+ T cells, increased IgA, decreased IgE and abnormal respiration.
