Primary Identifier | MGI:2450877 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 207777 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables voltage-gated calcium channel activity involved in regulation of presynaptic cytosolic calcium levels. Acts upstream of or within calcium ion transmembrane transport and regulation of presynaptic cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Is active in calyx of Held and glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dystonia. Orthologous to human TSPOAP1 (TSPO associated protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous double-KO with Rimbp2tm1.2Geno does not exacerbate the phenotype of the latter single KO. [provided by MGI curators] |
