A homozygous null mutation causes alterations in glucose and aerobic energy metabolism, tumor growth, and response to myocardial infarction, liver injury, and LPS-induced sepsis. A second null mutation confers resistance to renal injury, while a third one alters cell adhesion and T cell physiology.
