Primary Identifier | MGI:2152211 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 117148 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable A2A adenosine receptor binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and type 5 metabotropic glutamate receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of protein localization to membrane; regulation of amyloid precursor protein biosynthetic process; and regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in brain; embryo ectoderm; eye; nasal pit; and trigeminal ganglion. Orthologous to human NECAB2 (N-terminal EF-hand calcium binding protein 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit spermatid gigantism. [provided by MGI curators] |
