Primary Identifier | MGI:109148 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 18314 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable olfactory receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within axon guidance. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including main olfactory bulb and nose. Orthologous to human OR10A4 (olfactory receptor family 10 subfamily A member 4). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene possess olfactory neurons whose axons fail to project to the appropriate glomeruli in the olfactopry bulb. [provided by MGI curators] |
