Protein Coding Gene : Glul glutamate-ammonia ligase

Primary Identifier  MGI:95739 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  1 NCBI Gene Number  14645
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable several functions, including anion binding activity; dynein light chain binding activity; and metal ion binding activity. Involved in regulation of endothelial cell migration and regulation of sprouting angiogenesis. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to starvation and response to glucose. Located in cell body; cytoplasm; and glial cell projection. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; respiratory system; sensory organ; and urinary system. Used to study temporal lobe epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Huntington's disease; heart disease; and temporal lobe epilepsy. Orthologous to human GLUL (glutamate-ammonia ligase).
PHENOTYPE: Embryos homozygous for a reporter/null allele are not viable after E3.5; however, mutant E2.5 embryonic cells can survive in vitro if provided with glutamine. [provided by MGI curators]
