| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Located in muscle tendon junction; myofibril; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; heart; limb; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study X-linked deafness 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked deafness 4. Orthologous to human SMPX (small muscle protein X-linked). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation do not exhibit defects in heart or skeletal muscle morphology or development. [provided by MGI curators] |
