Primary Identifier | MGI:1924558 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 109246 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable signaling receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including collagen-activated tyrosine kinase receptor signaling pathway; mitocytosis; and platelet aggregation. Located in membrane and migrasome. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; diaphragm; gut; limb segment; and skeletal musculature. Orthologous to human TSPAN9 (tetraspanin 9). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced mitocytosis-associated migrasome formation and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential in macrophage and neutrophils.
