CEP152 centrosomal protein 152

Gene ID: 22995, updated on 3-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MCPH4; MCPH9; SCKL5

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that is thought to be involved with centrosome function. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary microcephaly (MCPH4). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]
