| Primary Identifier | MGI:95772 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 14678 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including G-protein beta/gamma-subunit complex binding activity; GTP binding activity; and GTPase activity. Involved in modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within G protein-coupled acetylcholine receptor signaling pathway; adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; and cell population proliferation. Located in cell body and dendrite. Is active in hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse and neuronal dense core vesicle. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study inflammatory bowel disease 12. Orthologous to human GNAI2 (G protein subunit alpha i2). PHENOTYPE: Nullizygous mice exhibit growth retardation, lethal ulcerative colitis, colon adenocarcinomas, granulocytosis, altered thymocyte maturation and function and enhanced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and may show alterations in leukocyte physiology and susceptibility to parasitic infection.
