Primary Identifier | MGI:1277202 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 12793 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in vesicle-mediated transport. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CNIH1 (cornichon family member 1). PHENOTYPE: The male homozygous mutant mice exhibited a decreased anxiety-like response during open field testing when compared with controls. The male mutants also exhibited decreased body weight, total tissue mass, and lean body mass. [provided by MGI curators] |
