Primary Identifier | MGI:1927498 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 64214 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables GTPase activator activity. Acts upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in liver. Orthologous to human RGS18 (regulator of G protein signaling 18). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for a null allele show reduced thermal nociception threshold, increased startle reflex, thrombocytopenia, defective megakaryopoiesis, and increased platelet aggregation. Homozygotes for a different null allele show decreased bleeding time, increased platelet aggregation, and thrombosis. [provided by MGI curators] |
