Gene ID: 23025

About UNC13A

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:17,601,336-17,688,354 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 158 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 22.6), adrenal (RPKM 1.5) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the UNC13 family. UNC13 proteins bind to phorbol esters and diacylglycerol and play important roles in neurotransmitter release at synapses. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
