Primary Identifier | MGI:1921763 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 74513 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Enables ionotropic glutamate receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in neurotransmitter receptor localization to postsynaptic specialization membrane and regulation of neurotransmitter receptor localization to postsynaptic specialization membrane. Located in postsynaptic density. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system and retina. Orthologous to human NETO2 (neuropilin and tolloid like 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation show normal brain morphology and kainate receptor mediated excitatory postsynaptic currents.
