Primary Identifier | MGI:3643383 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 546729 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables voltage-gated calcium channel activity. Involved in ATP export; protein heterooligomerization; and sensory perception of taste. Located in basolateral plasma membrane and plasma membrane raft. Is expressed in forebrain; gut; and male reproductive gland or organ. Orthologous to human CALHM1 (calcium homeostasis modulator 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit altered cortical neuron electrical properties. [provided by MGI curators] |
