Primary Identifier | MGI:109281 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 227937 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable cadherin binding activity. Involved in cell-cell junction assembly. Located in postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human PKP4 (plakophilin 4). PHENOTYPE: An uncharacterized gene trap insertion does not result in an obvious phenotype during the observation period early in life, although abnormalities may still develop at older age.
