High impact information on Dscr1l1

  • Here we disrupted the mcip1 and mcip2 genes in the mouse and provide multiple lines of evidence that endogenous MCIP functions as a calcineurin facilitator in vivo [1].
  • The effect of thyroid hormone on the expression of ZAKI-4 isoforms in mouse brain and heart was also studied [2].
  • The gene was mapped on chromosome 17qC, syntenic to human chromosome 6 where the human ZAKI-4 gene is located [2].
  • ZAKI-4 alpha mRNA was lower in the cerebral cortex of hypothyroid mice [2].
  • Injection of L-T(3) caused an increase in ZAKI-4 beta mRNA in heart; however, expression of neither ZAKI-4 alpha nor beta mRNA was influenced by thyroid status in other tissues [2].
 

Anatomical context of Dscr1l1

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Dscr1l1

  • METHODS: Total RNA extracted from mouse cerebellum was used to clone ZAKI-4 alpha and beta cDNAs by RT-PCR followed by rapid amplification of cDNA ends [2].
