MGI Phenotype Strain: 3795253
Lethality: E3-E4
FUNCTION: [Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] This gene encodes a component of the chromosomal passenger complex. This complex is an essential regulator of mitosis and cell division. This protein is cell-cycle regulated and is required for chromatin-induced microtubule stabilization and spindle formation. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudgenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 7, 8 and 16. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013]
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a reporter allele exhibit early embryonic lethality due to mitotic defects associated with abnormal microtubule organization and mislocalization of the chromosomal passenger protein complex. Blastocysts fail to develop past E3.5 and undergo apoptosis by E5.5. [provided by MGI curators]
