Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables 3',5'-cyclic-AMP phosphodiesterase activity and protein kinase B binding activity. Involved in cellular response to insulin stimulus. Acts upstream of or within endocrine pancreas development; glucose homeostasis; and regulation of insulin secretion. Located in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum; and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PDE3B (phosphodiesterase 3B). PHENOTYPE: Mutants show abnormalities in glycerol and fatty acid levels, along with changes in adipocyte morphology and decreased body fat percentage. [provided by MGI curators] |
