Primary Identifier | MGI:88031 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 11750 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables GTPase-dependent fusogenic activity. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; ligand-gated ion channel signaling pathway; and positive regulation of insulin secretion. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including glial cell proliferation; intracellular calcium ion homeostasis; and intracellular water homeostasis. Located in several cellular components, including cytosol; nuclear envelope; and vesicle. Orthologous to human ANXA7 (annexin A7). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for a null allele are viable but exhibit altered Ca2+ signaling and/or homeostasis in cardiomyocytes and glia cells, and changes in erythrocyte shape, osmotic resistance, platelet number and aggregation velocity. Homozygotes for another null allele die at ~E10 with cerebral hemorrhage. [provided by MGI curators] |
