| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ephrin receptor binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of axonogenesis and trans-synaptic signaling by trans-synaptic complex, modulating synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within T cell costimulation; adult walking behavior; and axon choice point recognition. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse; and presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Used to study movement disease. Orthologous to human EFNB3 (ephrin B3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for null mutations exhibit a hopping gait due to corticospinal tract defects, mutations that remove only the cytoplasmic domain of the protein do not result in the gait or CNS phenotypes, and a G244E mutation causes ataxia [provided by MGI curators] |
