C2orf18

Transmembrane protein C2orf18 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the C2orf18 is_associated_with::gene. The is_associated_with::orthologue in mice is 4930471M23Rik.

Model organisms
is_associated_with::Model organisms have been used in the study of C2orf18 function. A conditional is_associated_with::knockout mouse line, called 4930471M23Riktm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi was generated as part of the is_associated_with::International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists — at the is_associated_with::Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.

Male and female animals underwent a standardized is_associated_with::phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion. Twenty two tests were carried out on is_associated_with::mutant mice, but no significant abnormalities were observed.
