Primary Identifier | MGI:1891694 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 56278 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway and signal transduction. Located in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including aorta; genitourinary system; gut gland; nervous system; and trachea. Orthologous to human GKAP1 (G kinase anchoring protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout reduces spermatocyte apoptosis and increases sperm count, testis weight and epididymis size and weight. [provided by MGI curators] |
