Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: Syx; Tech; DSMA4; HMNR4; CMTRIC; GEF720; ARHGEF45

Summary

This gene encodes a protein that activates the nuclear factor kappa B (NFKB1) signaling pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive distal spinal muscular atrophy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
