Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.3.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including calcium channel inhibitor activity; enzyme activator activity; and enzyme binding activity. Involved in presynaptic endocytosis. Acts upstream of or within G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle. Located in myelin sheath and sperm midpiece. Part of voltage-gated potassium channel complex. Is active in calyx of Held. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia 4 and long QT syndrome 14. Orthologous to human CALM1 (calmodulin 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an amino acid substitution show small body size at a young age but become obese as they age and show hyperactivity, increased exploration in new environment, increased aerobic running capacity, and a slight increase in female heart rate.
