Primary Identifier | MGI:1860297 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 319924 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including PDZ domain binding activity; amyloid-beta binding activity; and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding activity. Involved in presynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including carboxylic acid transport; in utero embryonic development; and locomotory behavior. Located in membrane. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and presynaptic active zone membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system and dorsal root ganglion. Orthologous to human APBA1 (amyloid beta precursor protein binding family A member 1). PHENOTYPE: Animals carrying a homozygous mutation of this gene have reduced body size.
