PLEKHM2
Pleckstrin homology domain-containing family M member 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PLEKHM2 gene.[3]
Model organisms
Model organisms have been used in the study of PLEKHM2 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Plekhm2tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi[10][11] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[12][13][14]
Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[8][15] Twenty six tests were carried out on mutant mice and three significant abnormalities were observed.[8] Male homozygous mutants had increased circulating alkaline phosphatase levels and an increased susceptibility to bacterial infection, while females had an increased leukocyte cell number.[8]
