Primary Identifier | MGI:1927338 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 64176 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in regulation of presynaptic cytosolic calcium ion concentration and regulation of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Located in synaptic vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SV2B (synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2B). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation are phenotypically normal, and Sv2a/Sv2b double knockouts are no more affected than Sv2a single knockouts. [provided by MGI curators] |
