Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in myoblast fusion involved in skeletal muscle regeneration. Acts upstream of or within lipid droplet organization. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; glans of male genital tubercle; palatal shelf; skeleton; and submandibular gland primordium. Orthologous to human PTGFRN (prostaglandin F2 receptor inhibitor). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mice for a null gene trap mutation exhibit a decreased depressive-like response during tail suspension testing when compared with their wild-type littermates, [provided by MGI curators] |
