Primary Identifier | MGI:107929 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 18720 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables 1-phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within fibroblast migration and phosphatidylinositol biosynthetic process. Located in cytosol; nucleus; and ruffle membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PIP5K1A (phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase type 1 alpha). PHENOTYPE: A gene trap insertion into an intron of this gene results in no obvious phenotype. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit partial lethality and reduced male fertility associated with asthenozoospermia and abnormal midpiece morphology. [provided by MGI curators] |
