Gene: MAP6D1

Alternate names for this Gene: MAPO6D1|SL21

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein highly similar to the mouse MAP6 domain containing 1 protein, which is related to the STOP proteins. Based on the study of the mouse protein, the encoded protein may function as a calmodulin-regulated neuronal protein that binds and stabilizes microtubules but also associates with the Golgi membranes through N-terminal palmitoylation.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3q27.1

Description of this Gene: MAP6 domain containing 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding
