| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable amyloid-beta binding activity. Involved in maintenance of lens transparency and smooth muscle contraction. Acts upstream of or within extracellular matrix organization; generation of neurons; and regulation of apoptotic process. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and cognitive disorder. Orthologous to human APBB2 (amyloid beta precursor protein binding family B member 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and fertile and display normal brain morphology. [provided by MGI curators] |
