Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable non-membrane spanning protein tyrosine kinase activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; peptidyl-tyrosine phosphorylation; and positive regulation of insulin secretion. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including 2-cell stage embryo; central nervous system; ileum; male reproductive gland or organ; and peripheral nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 11 and systemic lupus erythematosus. Orthologous to human BLK (BLK proto-oncogene, Src family tyrosine kinase). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene does not result in a phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
