Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 13637 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables ephrin receptor binding activity. Involved in bone remodeling; ephrin receptor signaling pathway; and osteoclast differentiation. Predicted to be located in neuromuscular junction and perikaryon. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; ear; genitourinary system; and limb. Orthologous to human EFNA2 (ephrin A2). PHENOTYPE: Homozgous null mice exhibit increased neural progenitor cell proliferation and abnormalities in sensory projections to the superior colliculus [provided by MGI curators] |
