Primary Identifier | MGI:109430 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 15898 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable integrin binding activity. Involved in regulation of synapse assembly. Acts upstream of or within phagocytosis. Located in plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to human ICAM5 (intercellular adhesion molecule 5). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutant mice exhibit enhanced long-term potentiation, sensorimotor gating, and reward-based learning.
