| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Predicted to be involved in cell-matrix adhesion and epithelial structure maintenance. Located in basement membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; lung; salivary gland; and skin. Orthologous to human FREM3 (FRAS1 related extracellular matrix 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit no embryonic lethality and normal fertility, size, and no apparent Fraser syndrome- or MOTA/BNAR-like developmental defects.
