Primary Identifier | MGI:2384914 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 216190 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable phospholipid binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including adiponectin-activated signaling pathway; negative regulation of metabolic process; and positive regulation of endocytosis. Located in early phagosome membrane; macropinosome; and ruffle membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; autopod; brain; neural retina; and ventricular layer. Orthologous to human APPL2 (adaptor protein, phosphotyrosine interacting with PH domain and leucine zipper 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display altered red blood cell physiology. Mutant MEFs exhibit defects in HGF-induced Akt activation, migration, and invasion. [provided by MGI curators] |
