Primary Identifier | MGI:1337018 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 14428 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable galanin receptor activity; neuropeptide binding activity; and peptide hormone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron projection development. Predicted to be located in cilium. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human GALR2 (galanin receptor 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display a reduction in exploratory activity. There is also a modest shift in the distribution of different lymphocyte cell types.
