Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 76686 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ganglioside binding activity and microtubule plus-end binding activity. Involved in several processes, including fat cell differentiation; positive regulation of D-glucose transmembrane transport; and positive regulation of protein localization to plasma membrane. Located in plasma membrane and trans-Golgi network. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; diaphragm; genitourinary system; gut; and retina layer. Orthologous to human CLIP3 (CAP-Gly domain containing linker protein 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit impaired phrenic nerve-elicited muscle contraction, defects in diaphragm innervation, altered neuromuscular junction stability, abnormal motor innervation of other muscles, and complete neonatal lethality due to respiratory failure.
