Primary Identifier | MGI:2442153 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 231580 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable clathrin binding activity and cyclin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cell differentiation; establishment of skin barrier; and intrahepatic bile duct development. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and clathrin-coated vesicle. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; intracellular membrane-bounded organelle; and vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; liver; and retina. Orthologous to human GAK (cyclin G associated kinase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a deletion of the kinase domain display neonatal lethality with abnormal lung alveolar morphology and development. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit lethality during early development. [provided by MGI curators] |
