About LRRC8A

Cytogenetic location: 9q34.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:128,882,133-128,918,039 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 280 orthologues, 31 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 27.9), esophagus (RPKM 16.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein belonging to the leucine-rich repeat family of proteins, which are involved in diverse biological processes, including cell adhesion, cellular trafficking, and hormone-receptor interactions. This family member is a putative four-pass transmembrane protein that plays a role in B cell development. Defects in this gene cause autosomal dominant non-Bruton type agammaglobulinemia, an immunodeficiency disease resulting from defects in B cell maturation. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
