Primary Identifier | MGI:3041195 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 277978 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable SNARE binding activity. Involved in exocytosis and peptide hormone secretion. Located in secretory granule. Part of exocyst. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; lung; meninges; olfactory lobe; and vertebral axis musculature. Orthologous to human EXOC3L1 (exocyst complex component 3 like 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice are viable and exhibit no apparent phenotype in vascular development, cholesterol homeostasis or insulin secretion. [provided by MGI curators] |
