Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 72183 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables type I transforming growth factor beta receptor binding activity. Involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane neurotransmitter receptor levels. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic early endosome. Is expressed in brain; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; and cortical plate. Orthologous to human SNX6 (sorting nexin 6). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a conditional allele activated in neurons exhibit impaired spatial learning and memory, decreased dendritic spine density in CA1 neurons, and reduced AMPA-mediated eEPSCs.
