| Primary Identifier | MGI:96606 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 16408 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ICAM-3 receptor activity and integrin binding activity. Involved in cell-cell adhesion. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including activated T cell proliferation; positive regulation of T cell proliferation; and positive regulation of calcium-mediated signaling. Located in cell-cell junction; external side of plasma membrane; and immunological synapse. Is expressed in heart; hemolymphoid system; and vault of skull. Orthologous to human ITGAL (integrin subunit alpha L). PHENOTYPE: Nullizygous mutations of this gene lead to increased leukocyte cell number, alter T cell activation, leukocyte migration and adhesion, spleen and lymph node morphology, and may affect humoral immune responses, metastatic potential, and susceptibility to endotoxin shock.
