Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) A structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of vasoconstriction; regulation of cytoskeleton organization; and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Located in several cellular components, including brush border; condensed nuclear chromosome; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; chondrocranium; gut; tail unsegmented mesenchyme; and vertebral axis musculature. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy 3. Orthologous to human ADD3 (adducin 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit normal blood pressure and show no significant alterations in red blood cell or platelet structure and function. [provided by MGI curators] |
