| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.1.0) Predicted to enable apelin receptor binding activity; hormone activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in apelin receptor signaling pathway; coronary vasculature development; and positive regulation of G protein-coupled receptor internalization. Predicted to be located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human APLN (apelin). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for one null allele display narrower small vessels and a reduction in the density of vessels in some capillary beds. Mice homozygous or hemizygous for a second null allele display impaired cardiac function with age. [provided by MGI curators] |
