Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 234889 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable guanylate cyclase activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of nitric oxide mediated signal transduction. Predicted to be part of guanylate cyclase complex, soluble. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; nervous system; and urinary system. Orthologous to human GUCY1A2 (guanylate cyclase 1 soluble subunit alpha 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation display normal blood vessel and platelet physiology. [provided by MGI curators] |
