| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Contributes to inward rectifier potassium channel activity. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on cardiac muscle cell contraction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to ATP; heart development; and oxygen metabolic process. Located in sarcomere. Part of inward rectifying potassium channel. Is active in mitochondrion and sarcolemma. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; musculoskeletal system; nervous system; and nose. Used to study hypertrichotic osteochondrodysplasia Cantu type. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dilated cardiomyopathy; dilated cardiomyopathy 1O; familial atrial fibrillation; hypertrichotic osteochondrodysplasia Cantu type; and intellectual disability and myopathy syndrome. Orthologous to human ABCC9 (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 9). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display lower serum glucose, enhanced insulin action, growth retardation, hypertension and spontaneous death due to episodic coronary artery vasospasm. Homozygous exon 5 deletion leads to cardiac mitochondrial defects, cardiomyopathy, and early postnatal death. [provided by MGI curators] |
