Primary Identifier | MGI:1916264 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 665113 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in regulation of neurotransmitter receptor localization to postsynaptic specialization membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 54. Orthologous to human TNIK (TRAF2 and NCK interacting kinase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit impaired postsynaptic signaling and cognitive function. [provided by MGI curators] |
