Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 74732 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable SNAP receptor activity and SNARE binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to type II interferon and leukocyte degranulation. Located in phagocytic vesicle. Is expressed in appendicular skeleton; brain; heart; and pancreas. Used to study familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 4. Orthologous to human STX11 (syntaxin 11). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit defective CTL degranulation and symptoms of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis following infection with LMCV. [provided by MGI curators] |
