| Primary Identifier | MGI:3050566 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 238161 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including cytoskeleton-nuclear membrane anchor activity; enzyme binding activity; and protein kinase A regulatory subunit binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including regulation of intracellular signal transduction; regulation of monoatomic cation transmembrane transport; and regulation of muscle system process. Located in nuclear membrane and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in gut; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in anorexia nervosa and ovary epithelial cancer. Orthologous to human AKAP6 (A-kinase anchoring protein 6). PHENOTYPE: Targeted disruption of this gene results in partial embryonic lethality; surviving homozygotes display a decreased body weight, craniofacial defects and reduced viability.
