| Primary Identifier | MGI:3588268 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 242851 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables GTPase activity. Acts upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and sensory perception of taste. Located in cytoplasm. Part of heterotrimeric G-protein complex. Is expressed in alimentary system and liver. Orthologous to human GNAT3 (G protein subunit alpha transducin 3). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in abnormal taste sensitivity. Mice show reduced behavioral and electrophysiological responses to bitter, sweet, and unami compounds. [provided by MGI curators] |
