description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable calmodulin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in carbohydrate metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within glycogen metabolic process. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of phosphorylase kinase complex. Is expressed in diencephalon lateral wall mantle layer; heart; and midbrain mantle layer. Used to study glycogen storage disease IXd. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glycogen storage disease and glycogen storage disease IXd. Orthologous to human PHKA1 (phosphorylase kinase regulatory subunit alpha 1). PHENOTYPE: PHK activity is nearly absent in I/Ln skeletal muscle and reduced in brain, heart and kidney. The I-allele sequence is known to have a single nucleotide insertion (frameshift). A different allele in strain V reduces PHK activity to 25% and is dominant tonormal and I-strain alleles. [provided by MGI curators] |
