| Primary Identifier | MGI:1920177 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 72927 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be involved in immune response. Predicted to be located in astrocyte end-foot. Predicted to be active in cell-cell junction. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; heart; nervous system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Used to study megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts 2A and megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts 2B. Orthologous to human HEPACAM (hepatic and glial cell adhesion molecule). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele display myelin vacuolization that progresses with age.
