Protein Coding Gene : Als2 alsin Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor

Primary Identifier  MGI:1921268 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  1 NCBI Gene Number  74018
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)

Predicted to enable several functions, including GTPase regulator activity; protein homodimerization activity; and small GTPase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including behavioral fear response; glutamatergic synaptic transmission; and neuromuscular junction development. Located in several cellular components, including centrosome; postsynaptic density; and ruffle. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; liver; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 2. Orthologous to human ALS2 (alsin Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor ALS2).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mutations in this gene may result in increased body weight, altered endosome trafficking, modest motor behavioral abnormalities, altered anxiety responses, impaired axonal transport, and mild neurolopathogical deficits including axonal degeneration in the corticospinal tract.
