Gene: AGBL1
Alternate names for this Gene: CCP4|FECD8
Gene Summary: Polyglutamylation is a reversible posttranslational modification catalyzed by polyglutamylases that results in the addition of glutamate side chains on the modified protein. This gene encodes a glutamate decarboxylase that catalyzes the deglutamylation of polyglutamylated proteins. Mutations in this gene result in dominant late-onset Fuchs corneal dystrophy.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 15
Location in Chromosome : 15q25.3
Description of this Gene: ATP/GTP binding protein like 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
