| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Predicted to enable cell-cell adhesion mediator activity. Involved in associative learning and inhibitory synapse assembly. Located in cell surface; postsynaptic density; and postsynaptic membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; ear; forelimb bud; heart; and paraxial mesenchyme. Orthologous to human CLSTN2 (calsyntenin 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous KO mice display deficiency in spatial learning and memory in Morris water and Barnes maze tasks and increased locomotor activity in open field test. [provided by MGI curators] |
