Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 226778 |
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 ATP binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Involved in establishment of mitochondrion localization; regulation of dendrite development; and regulation of postsynapse assembly. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Is expressed in dorsal root ganglion; facial ganglion; glossopharyngeal ganglion; and trigeminal ganglion. Orthologous to human MARK1 (microtubule affinity regulating kinase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit no obvious defects in lung epithelium morphology or apical cytoskeletal organization. [provided by MGI curators] |
