About Sgca

Summary

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Involved in response to denervation involved in regulation of muscle adaptation and skeletal muscle tissue regeneration. Predicted to be located in cell-cell junction; membrane raft; and sarcolemma. Predicted to be part of sarcoglycan complex. Biomarker of muscular atrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D and muscular dystrophy. Orthologous to human SGCA (sarcoglycan alpha).
