Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and calcium ion sensor activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron projection development. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in adrenal gland; cochlea; dorsal root ganglion; and embryo. Orthologous to human EFHD1 (EF-hand domain family member D1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced axonal coverage and decreased number of branches with reduced ATP levels and shortened mitochondria in addition to increased neuron apoptosis.
