description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be involved in endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport and retrograde vesicle-mediated transport, Golgi to endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment; and nucleolus. Predicted to be part of retrograde transporter complex, Golgi to ER. Predicted to be active in COPII-coated ER to Golgi transport vesicle; endoplasmic reticulum; and membrane. Orthologous to human ERGIC2 (ERGIC and golgi 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an ENU-induced point mutation affecting the donor splice site of intron 5 exhibit swelling of the hind feet and tail. Knockout mice exhibit enlarged heart ventricles and decreased heart ventricular contractility. [provided by MGI curators] |
