| Primary Identifier | MGI:1860476 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 56183 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable type 1 neuromedin U receptor binding activity and type 2 neuromedin U receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including energy homeostasis; regulation of feeding behavior; and regulation of grooming behavior. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in terminal bouton. Is expressed in spinal cord; stomach; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Orthologous to human NMU (neuromedin U). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice are healthy and viable. [provided by MGI curators] |
