Primary Identifier | MGI:2448063 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 237560 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables actin binding activity and alpha-actinin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cardiac muscle cell development. Located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; mitochondrion; and sarcomere. Is expressed in heart and male reproductive gland or organ. Used to study dilated cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human LRRC10 (leucine rich repeat containing 10). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation are viable and fertile. They show prenatal systolic dysfunction and development of dilated cardiomyopathy in postnatal life. [provided by MGI curators] |
