Primary Identifier | MGI:1345153 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 23970 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity and lipid binding activity. Involved in cell projection morphogenesis; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and plasma membrane tubulation. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of endocytosis. Located in caveola; cell-cell junction; and cytosol. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; aorta; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; genitourinary system; and thymus. Orthologous to human PACSIN2 (protein kinase C and casein kinase substrate in neurons 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced running endurance, distance, and speed with impaired fetal cardiomyocyte electrophysiology. [provided by MGI curators] |
