Primary Identifier | MGI:1342283 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 20499 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables ammonium transmembrane transporter activity and potassium:chloride symporter activity. Involved in ammonium import across plasma membrane; cellular response to glucose stimulus; and potassium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in vestibulo-cochlear ganglion. Orthologous to human SLC12A7 (solute carrier family 12 member 7). PHENOTYPE: Hearing is severely impaired in homozygous mutant mice, which also exhibit renal tubular acidosis.
