TRIM45
tripartite motif containing 45, also known as TRIM45, is a human gene.[3]
This gene encodes a member of the tripartite motif family. The encoded protein may function as a [transcriptional repressor of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[3]
Model organisms
Model organisms have been used in the study of TRIM45 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Trim45tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi[9][10] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[11][12][13]
Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[7][14] Twenty six tests were carried out on mutant mice and three significant abnormalities were observed.[7] No homozygous mutant embryos were identified during gestation, and therefore none survived until weaning. The remaining tests were carried out on heterozygous mutant adult mice; males had increased circulating magnesium levels while animals of both sex displayed increased bone strength.[7]
