SH3TC2 SH3 domain and tetratricopeptide repeats 2

Gene ID: 79628, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MNMN; CMT4C

Summary

This gene encodes a protein with two N-terminal Src homology 3 (SH3) domains and 10 tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) motifs, and is a member of a small gene family. The gene product has been proposed to be an adapter or docking molecule. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal recessive Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4C, a childhood-onset neurodegenerative disease characterized by demyelination of motor and sensory neurons.
