Protein Coding Gene : Slc24a5 solute carrier family 24, member 5

Primary Identifier  MGI:2677271 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  2 NCBI Gene Number  317750
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)

Enables calcium ion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in calcium ion import. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of melanin biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and membrane. Predicted to be active in trans-Golgi network. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; brain; gonad; sensory organ; and submandibular gland. Used to study ocular albinism 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oculocutaneous albinism type VI. Orthologous to human SLC24A5 (solute carrier family 24 member 5).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit hypopigmentation and ocular albinism. [provided by MGI curators]
