| Primary Identifier | MGI:108563 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 19261 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Enables protein phosphatase binding activity and protein phosphorylated amino acid binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of MAPK cascade; negative regulation of cytokine production; and negative regulation of nitrogen compound metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation; phagocytosis; and positive regulation of phagocytosis. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; cartilage; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and retina. Orthologous to human SIRPA (signal regulatory protein alpha). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display mild thrombocytopenia, fatty livers, decreased body weight, decreased proportion of single positive T cells, enhanced peritoneal macrophage phagocytosis and impaired Langerhans cell migration.
