Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in regulation of relaxation of cardiac muscle. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle; cardiac muscle contraction; and protein phosphorylation. Located in several cellular components, including T-tubule; axon initial segment; and intercalated disc. Is active in cochlear hair cell ribbon synapse and postsynaptic cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; heart ventricle; olfactory epithelium; renal vasculature; and retina. Orthologous to human CAMK2D (calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II delta). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit reduced response to heart induced stress. Mice homozygous for an allele that produces an oxidant-resistant product exhibit reduced response to myocardial infarction in a diabetic model. [provided by MGI curators] |
