Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 233765 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable delta-catenin binding activity. Involved in cell-cell adhesion mediated by cadherin and pore complex assembly. Located in cell-cell junction. Part of pore complex. Is expressed in several structures, including brain ventricular layer; foregut; heart; nasal cavity epithelium; and tooth. Orthologous to human PLEKHA7 (pleckstrin homology domain containing A7). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele show decreased susceptibility to bacterial infection. [provided by MGI curators] |
