Gene information for AMN (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID81693
Official gene symbolAMN
Full nameamnionless homolog (mouse)
Aliases,PRO1028,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane protein. It is thought to modulate bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor function by serving as an accessory or coreceptor, and thus facilitates or hinders BMP binding. It is known that the mouse AMN gene is expressed in the extraembryonic visceral endoderm layer during gastrulation, but it is found to be mutated in amnionless mouse. The encoded protein has sequence similarity to short gastrulation (Sog) and procollagen IIA proteins in Drosophila. [provided by RefSeq]
