Primary Identifier | MGI:1922368 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 231549 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables volume-sensitive anion channel activity. Involved in intracellular glucose homeostasis. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including nasal cavity epithelium; nervous system; submandibular gland primordium; tooth; and vibrissa. Orthologous to human LRRC8D (leucine rich repeat containing 8 VRAC subunit D). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit normal response to viral infection. [provided by MGI curators] |
