Primary Identifier | MGI:1915024 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 67774 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Acts upstream of or within nervous system development and organelle transport along microtubule. Is active in axon and lysosome. Is expressed in brain; heart; lung; and metanephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal adenocarcinoma. Orthologous to human BORCS5 (BLOC-1 related complex subunit 5). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout affects lysosomal transport in nerve fibers, leading to respiratory failure around birth and perinatal death. [provided by MGI curators] |
