About Smo

Primary_assembly 4: 58,343,529-58,373,829 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026977.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 204 orthologues, 15 paralogues and is associated with 46 phenotypes. Biased expression in Uterus (RPKM 82.7), Kidney (RPKM 58.7) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable patched binding activity. Involved in several processes, including neuron projection development; osteoblast proliferation; and positive regulation of vascular associated smooth muscle cell migration. Located in several cellular components, including growth cone; neuronal cell body; and postsynaptic density. Used to study Barrett's esophagus; esophagus adenocarcinoma; and middle cerebral artery infarction. Biomarker of ocular hypertension; pancreatitis; pre-malignant neoplasm; and visual epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in basal cell carcinoma; hepatocellular carcinoma; pancreatic cancer; and pancreatic ductal carcinoma. Orthologous to human Smo (smoothened, Frizzled class receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
