Chromosome | 18 | NCBI Gene Number | 12405 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in maintenance of synapse structure; spontaneous synaptic transmission; and trans-synaptic signaling, modulating synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of synapse assembly. Located in extracellular space. Part of trans-synaptic protein complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and synaptic cleft. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; ganglia; limb; midgut; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CBLN2 (cerebellin 2 precursor). PHENOTYPE: No overt anatomical or neuroanatomical defects are observed in mice homozygous for deletion of this gene. [provided by MGI curators] |
