Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including nervous system; neural retina; and olfactory epithelium. Orthologous to human PHYHIPL (phytanoyl-CoA 2-hydroxylase interacting protein like). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit abnormal cerebellar Purkinje cell morphology and innervation, decreased formation of molecular layer interneuron-Purkinje cell synapses, and impaired motor coordination.
