Primary Identifier | MGI:1919305 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 72055 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within bone development. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be active in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SLC38A10 (solute carrier family 38 member 10). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice exhibit a fragile skeleton, reduced adiposity, lean body mass, body weight/length, long bone length and bone mineral density, increased creatinine levels, reduced amylase and serum albumin levels, increased energy efficiency and oxygen consumption, and altered liver physiology.
