| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including oligosaccharide binding activity; phospholipase binding activity; and sialic acid binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of leukocyte tethering or rolling. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of leukocyte migration. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including caveola; clathrin-coated pit; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; genitourinary system; incisor; integumental system; and limb segment. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis; brain ischemia; cerebrovascular disease; and coronary artery disease. Orthologous to human SELE (selectin E). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit mild defects in neutrophil infiltration during inflammatory responses. When combined with other selectin gene knockouts, more severe defects are present. [provided by MGI curators] |
