Protein Coding Gene : Guca2b guanylate cyclase activator 2b (retina)

Primary Identifier  MGI:1270851 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  4 NCBI Gene Number  14916
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable guanylate cyclase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including glucose homeostasis; reduction of food intake in response to dietary excess; and response to glucose. Acts upstream of or within body fluid secretion; negative regulation of blood pressure; and renal sodium ion absorption. Located in photoreceptor outer segment. Orthologous to human GUCA2B (guanylate cyclase activator 2B).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation exhibit elevated blood pressure, increased sodium levels, and reduced sodium, potassium, and fluid excretion following salt loading. [provided by MGI curators]
