Primary Identifier | MGI:1929676 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 58182 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to hormone stimulus; circadian rhythm; and negative regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; gut; metanephros; and reproductive system. Orthologous to human PROKR1 (prokineticin receptor 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for one null allele exhibit abnormal nociceptions and hypoalgesia. Mice homozygous for another null allele exhibit decreased capillary density in the heart. [provided by MGI curators] |
