| Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 227738 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of macroautophagy; protein ubiquitination; and ubiquitin-dependent endocytosis. Predicted to act upstream of or within autophagy and protein transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol and membrane. Is expressed in cranial ganglion; dorsal root ganglion; hindbrain; and olfactory epithelium. Used to study Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2P. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2P. Orthologous to human LRSAM1 (leucine rich repeat and sterile alpha motif containing 1). PHENOTYPE: Mutant mice either heterozygous or homozygous for a gene trapped allele exhibit mild neuromuscular junction and axonal defects in the absence of a neuronal challenge, but show increased sensitivity to acrylamide-induced motor axon degeneration relative to control mice.
