| Primary Identifier | MGI:2663979 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 232836 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Predicted to enable signaling receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within behavioral response to starvation and regulation of appetite. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including Harderian gland; alimentary system; genitourinary system; immune system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human GALP (galanin like peptide). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit resistance to diet induced obesity. [provided by MGI curators] |
