Primary Identifier | MGI:1934028 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 80883 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable cell-cell adhesion mediator activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of cell projection organization; regulation of neuron migration; and synaptic membrane adhesion. Acts upstream of or within axonogenesis. Located in plasma membrane. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and presynaptic active zone membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain and enteric nervous system. Orthologous to human NTNG1 (netrin G1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele survive into adulthood with no major alterations in gross brain cytoarchitecture or axonal projection. [provided by MGI curators] |
