Primary Identifier | MGI:99569 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 14739 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of peptidyl-threonine phosphorylation; regulation of postsynapse assembly; and sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of excitatory postsynaptic potential. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and presynapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 68 and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 68. Orthologous to human S1PR2 (sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mutations in this gene may lead to impaired auditory and vestibular function, multiple inner ear pathologies, deafness, altered neuronal excitability, lethal seizures, altered physiology of germinal center B cells, small litter size, and enhanced tumor angiogenesis and tumor growth.
