GAN - gigaxonin Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as GIG; GAN1; KLHL16

Gene ID: 8139 | Gene type: protein coding

About GAN

Cytogenetic location: 16q23.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:81,314,962-81,390,809 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 54 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in skin (RPKM 5.8), esophagus (RPKM 2.0) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the cytoskeletal BTB/kelch (Broad-Complex, Tramtrack and Bric a brac) repeat family. The encoded protein plays a role in neurofilament architecture and is involved in mediating the ubiquitination and degradation of some proteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of giant axonal neuropathy (GAN). [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
