Primary Identifier | MGI:2137907 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 18 | NCBI Gene Number | 83885 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable L-arginine transmembrane transporter activity; L-lysine transmembrane transporter activity; and L-ornithine transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in L-alpha-amino acid transmembrane transport and ornithine metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in medulla oblongata basal plate mantle layer and pons mantle layer. Orthologous to human SLC25A2 (solute carrier family 25 member 2). PHENOTYPE: Males homozygous for a null allele show normal male fertility. [provided by MGI curators] |
