Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 209086 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within several processes, including common myeloid progenitor cell proliferation; endosomal vesicle fusion; and spleen development. Located in early endosome. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Used to study myelodysplastic syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia. Orthologous to human SAMD9L (sterile alpha motif domain containing 9 like). PHENOTYPE: Mice that are either heterozygous or homozygous for a reporter allele develop myeloid diseases and acute myelogenous leukemia. [provided by MGI curators] |
