Primary Identifier | MGI:107891 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 110109 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable rRNA (cytosine-C5-)-methyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within blastocyst formation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be active in nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and tooth. Orthologous to human NOP2 (NOP2 nucleolar protein). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene trapped allele exhibit complete prenatal lethality. [provided by MGI curators] |
