Primary Identifier | MGI:1927133 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 63985 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable Arp2/3 complex binding activity. Acts upstream of or within learning and locomotory behavior. Predicted to be active in cortical actin cytoskeleton. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver; retina layer; and spleen. Orthologous to human GMFB (glia maturation factor beta). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display impaired balance and eye blink conditioning behavior and abnormal metencephalon morphology. [provided by MGI curators] |
