Primary Identifier | MGI:2444720 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 237782 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protein kinase binding activity and protein kinase inhibitor activity. Predicted to contribute to guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in regulation of autophagy. Located in cytoplasm; postsynapse; and presynapse. Orthologous to human SMCR8 (SMCR8-C9orf72 complex subunit). PHENOTYPE: Mouse embryonic fibroblasts homozygous for a knock-out allele show impaired autophagy induction, a reduced autophagic flux, and abnormal expression of lysosomal enzymes.
