| Primary Identifier | MGI:97371 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 18160 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables guanylate cyclase activity. Involved in regulation of blood pressure. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of ANPR-A receptor complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; limb; respiratory system; and ventricle cardiac muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human NPR1 (natriuretic peptide receptor 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous inactivation of this gene can lead to hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, lethal vascular events, congestive heart failure in response to volume overload, reduced serum testosterone levels, altered steroidogenesis, and reduced myocardial PMN infiltration and infarct size after I/R injury.
