Protein Coding Gene : Gnat2 G protein subunit alpha transducin 2

Primary Identifier  MGI:95779 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  3 NCBI Gene Number  14686
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor binding activity; G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex binding activity; and GTPase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including detection of light stimulus; homeostasis of number of retina cells; and retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in early conceptus; eye; and oocyte. Used to study achromatopsia and achromatopsia 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in achromatopsia 4 and color blindness. Orthologous to human GNAT2 (G protein subunit alpha transducin 2).
PHENOTYPE: Mutations in this gene result in progressive degeneration of photoreceptors and normal ERG responses. [provided by MGI curators]
