Primary Identifier | MGI:2445179 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 223693 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be active in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; alimentary system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and nervous system. Orthologous to human TMEM184B (transmembrane protein 184B). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene-trapped allele exhibit delayed axon degeneration following peripheral nerve injury, progressive structural abnormalities at neuromuscular synapses, swellings within sensory terminals, sensory-motor dysfunction, and abnormal autophagy.
