Protein Coding Gene : Prickle2 prickle planar cell polarity protein 2

Primary Identifier  MGI:1925144 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  6 NCBI Gene Number  243548
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable zinc ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic brain development; maintenance of postsynaptic density structure; and regulation of postsynaptic density assembly. Acts upstream of or within establishment or maintenance of epithelial cell apical/basal polarity. Located in apicolateral plasma membrane; cytoplasm; and lateral plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; primitive streak; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human PRICKLE2 (prickle planar cell polarity protein 2).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit increased susceptibility to electroconvulsive or PTZ-induced seizures. Mice heterozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit increased susceptibility to electroconvulsive seizures. [provided by MGI curators]
