Primary Identifier | MGI:1337018 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 14428 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Predicted to enable galanin receptor activity; neuropeptide binding activity; and peptide hormone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron projection development. Predicted to be located in cilium. Orthologous to human GALR2 (galanin receptor 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display a reduction in exploratory activity. There is also a modest shift in the distribution of different lymphocyte cell types.
