Protein Coding Gene : Plxna2 plexin A2

Primary Identifier  MGI:107684 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  1 NCBI Gene Number  18845
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables identical protein binding activity and semaphorin receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including chordate embryonic development; limb bud formation; and semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within cell surface receptor signaling pathway; centrosome localization; and cerebellar granule cell precursor tangential migration. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; heart; lung; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PLXNA2 (plexin A2).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele show abnormal granule cell migration in the adult cerebellum and aberrant projection of mossy fibers in hippocampal slices. Mice homozygous for an ENU-induced allele are smaller and show granule cell migration defects and mild ataxia with incomplete penetrance. [provided by MGI curators]
