Primary Identifier | MGI:1920590 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 73340 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables protein phosphatase binding activity. Involved in neuron projection development; neurotransmitter receptor localization to postsynaptic specialization membrane; and regulation of postsynaptic specialization assembly. Located in plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in female associated reproductive structure; limb; male associated reproductive structure; and renal vasculature. Orthologous to human NPTXR (neuronal pentraxin receptor). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation of this gene display a mild alteration in retinal ganglion cell innervation but are fertile with no obvious behavioral abnormalities.
