Primary Identifier | MGI:2451244 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 230775 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within peripheral nervous system development and positive regulation of synapse assembly. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; endocrine gland; genitourinary system; spleen; and visual system. Orthologous to human ADGRB2 (adhesion G protein-coupled receptor B2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene show a lessening of depression like behavior. [provided by MGI curators] |
