Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 72585 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables acetylcholine receptor binding activity and acetylcholine receptor inhibitor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including behavioral fear response; negative regulation of protein localization to plasma membrane; and synaptic signaling. Located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; limb; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human LYPD1 (LY6/PLAUR domain containing 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit increased fear and anxiety behaviors with increased spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic current following nicotine treatment.
