Primary Identifier | MGI:102705 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 14702 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable G-protein beta-subunit binding activity and GTPase activity. Acts upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and fibroblast proliferation. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in early conceptus; genitourinary system; intestine; nervous system; and neural retina. Orthologous to human GNG2 (G protein subunit gamma 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit reduced vomeronasal basal neurons, reduced posterior glomerular layer of the accessory olfactory bulb and decreased aggression towards male mice.
