NDE1 nudE neurodevelopment protein 1

Gene ID: 54820, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: NDE; LIS4; MHAC; NUDE; NUDE1; HOM-TES-87

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the nuclear distribution E (NudE) family of proteins. The encoded protein is localized at the centrosome and interacts with other centrosome components as part of a multiprotein complex that regulates dynein function. This protein plays an essential role in microtubule organization, mitosis and neuronal migration. Mutations in this gene cause lissencephaly 4, a disorder characterized by lissencephaly, severe brain atrophy, microcephaly, and severe cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]
