description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lysosome localization; motor behavior; and response to cycloheximide. Is active in lysosome. Used to study hereditary spastic paraplegia and neuroaxonal dystrophy. Orthologous to human BORCS7 (BLOC-1 related complex subunit 7). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice die within 12 hours of birth and exhibit abnormal axonal transport of lysosomes and synaptic vesicles. [provided by MGI curators] |
