Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in several processes, including cellular response to brain-derived neurotrophic factor stimulus; nervous system development; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in several cellular components, including axon; endosome; and postsynaptic density. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density membrane. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to human TMEM108 (transmembrane protein 108). PHENOTYPE: Mice with drastically reduced expression exhibit decreased excitatory postsynaptic currents of dentate gyrate granule neurons, impaired sensorimotor gating, and behavioral deficits.
