Primary Identifier | MGI:101764 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 12569 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables several functions, including Hsp90 protein binding activity; cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity; and enzyme binding activity. Involved in several processes, including ephrin receptor signaling pathway; nervous system development; and regulation of cytoskeleton organization. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including G1 to G0 transition involved in cell differentiation; brain development; and serine phosphorylation of STAT protein. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of protein kinase 5 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Used to study attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Orthologous to human CDK5R1 (cyclin dependent kinase 5 regulatory subunit 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of the gene results in structural abnormalities of the brain such as a small corpus callosum and delaminated cerebral cortex. Mice show hyperactivity and decreased locomotion in response to stimulants. [provided by MGI curators] |
