Primary Identifier | MGI:97807 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 19259 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Enables protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cellular component organization; positive regulation of establishment of protein localization; and positive regulation of long-term synaptic potentiation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including perikaryon; proximal dendrite; and synaptic vesicle. Predicted to be active in cell junction; cytosol; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; genitourinary system; retina; and submandibular gland. Orthologous to human PTPN5 (protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit normal brain development. [provided by MGI curators] |
