| Primary Identifier | MGI:95666 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 14468 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Enables GTPase activity. Involved in cytolysis in another organism; positive regulation of defense response; and response to bacterium. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi membrane; cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; and cytosol. Predicted to be active in cytoplasmic vesicle and symbiont cell surface. Orthologous to several human genes including GBP2 (guanylate binding protein 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted allele exhibit increased susceptibility to bacterial infection.
