| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables calcium,diacylglycerol-dependent serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; negative regulation of protein metabolic process; and response to morphine. Acts upstream of or within chemosensory behavior and regulation of phagocytosis. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite; postsynaptic density; and synaptic membrane. Is active in calyx of Held and presynaptic cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early embryo; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Used to study spinocerebellar ataxia type 14. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spinocerebellar ataxia type 14. Orthologous to human PRKCG (protein kinase C gamma). PHENOTYPE: Depending upon genetic background, homozygous null mice show mild deficits in spatial learning and contextual conditioning. Genotype-dependent reductions in sensitivity to the effects of ethanol on righting reflex and hypothermia, in neuropathic pain after injury, and in anxiety are also evident.
