Primary Identifier | MGI:2384945 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 217125 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin filament organization; calcium-mediated signaling; and neuron projection development. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including actin cytoskeleton; dendrite; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in liver lobe; nervous system; neural retina; and olfactory epithelium. Orthologous to human SAMD14 (sterile alpha motif domain containing 14). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a hypomorphic allele affecting an intronic enhancer exhibit increased susceptibility to PTZ-induced anemia due to increased hematopoietic stem cell apoptosis.
