Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 214189 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of long-term synaptic potentiation and regulation of presynaptic cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and transport vesicle membrane. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including cytosol; dendrite; and terminal bouton. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; gonad; liver; pancreas; and stomach. Orthologous to human SCGN (secretagogin, EF-hand calcium binding protein). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout increases susceptibility to DSS-induced colitis. [provided by MGI curators] |
