Primary Identifier | MGI:104810 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 18786 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables phospholipase A2 activator activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of protein K63-linked ubiquitination; positive regulation of dendrite extension; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via the multivesicular body sorting pathway. Acts upstream of or within inflammatory response. Located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and synapse. Orthologous to human PLAA (phospholipase A2 activating protein). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous KO is embryonic lethal. A hypomorphic homozygous point mutation affects neuromuscular junctions and Purkinje cell development, causing early-onset neurodysfunction.
