Primary Identifier | MGI:97430 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | Mgi Type | polymorphic pseudogene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables double-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of viral genome replication and response to virus. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary immunodeficiency disease. Orthologous to human OAS1 (2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase 1). PHENOTYPE: Spontaneous mutations of this gene result in altered susceptibility to viral infection. [provided by MGI curators] |
