Primary Identifier | MGI:1919150 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 71900 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables ATPase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lysosomal lumen acidification; lysosomal protein catabolic process; and positive regulation of dendrite development. Located in lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; hemolymphoid system gland; integumental system; male reproductive gland or organ; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 16. Orthologous to human TMEM106B (transmembrane protein 106B). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout impairs retrograde lysosomal transport, which causes vacuolization of motor neurons, leading to impaired motor coordination. [provided by MGI curators] |
