| Primary Identifier | MGI:108174 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 19091 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables cGMP binding activity and cGMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Involved in collateral sprouting; protein phosphorylation; and signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within cGMP-mediated signaling; nervous system development; and relaxation of vascular associated smooth muscle. Located in Golgi apparatus and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including bone; central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in thoracic aortic aneurysm. Orthologous to human PRKG1 (protein kinase cGMP-dependent 1). PHENOTYPE: Mutant mice exhibit abnormal smooth muscle function and penile erectile deficiency. Conditional disruption in the hippocampus results in impaired LTP. Mice homozygous for a transposon induced allele exhibit postnatal lethality. [provided by MGI curators] |
