Cln6 - ceroid-lipofuscinosis, neuronal 6 Gene

Predicted to enable lysophosphatidic acid binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and sulfatide binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including locomotion involved in locomotory behavior; lysosome organization; and visual perception. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including early endosome; endoplasmic reticulum lumen; and membrane raft. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system and retina. Used to study neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 6. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis; neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 4A; and neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 6. Orthologous to human CLN6 (CLN6 transmembrane ER protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
