Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within several processes, including activation of protein kinase C activity; excitatory postsynaptic potential; and nervous system development. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite; neuronal cell body; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and retina. Orthologous to human SEZ6 (seizure related 6 homolog). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit increased short dendrites, decreased excitatory synaptic signaling, resistance to pharmacologically induces seizures, decreased activity and impaired learning and coordination.
