| Primary Identifier | MGI:98326 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 16 | NCBI Gene Number | 20604 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables receptor ligand activity. Involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane neurotransmitter receptor levels and somatostatin signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within regulation of cell migration. Located in extracellular space. Is active in GABA-ergic synapse and cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; immune system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SST (somatostatin). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele show altered GH secretory dynamics, hypergastremia, and reduced hippocampal bursting and excitatory transmission. Mice homozygous for another null allele show impaired motor learning, higher GH and corticosterone levels,gastric fundus hyperplasia and hyperacidity. [provided by MGI curators] |
