MCPH1 - microcephalin 1 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as MCT; BRIT1

Gene ID: 79648 | Gene type: protein coding

About MCPH1

Cytogenetic location: 8p23.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:6,406,627-6,648,508 (from NCBI)

This gene has 39 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 203 orthologues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 1.3), testis (RPKM 1.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a DNA damage response protein. The encoded protein may play a role in G2/M checkpoint arrest via maintenance of inhibitory phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary autosomal recessive microcephaly 1 and premature chromosome condensation syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
