Primary Identifier | MGI:1930751 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 56407 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable phosphatase binding activity and ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Acts upstream of or within hair follicle maturation. Predicted to be located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of Cul4A-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer and cortical plate. Orthologous to human TRPC4AP (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C member 4 associated protein). PHENOTYPE: Female mice heterozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit anomalies in the growth phase of the hair cycle (anagen). Mice homozygous for a different null allele exhibit resistance to high-fat diet-induced brain injury and metabolic disorder. [provided by MGI curators] |
