Gene: PLP1
Alternate names for this Gene: GPM6C|HLD1|MMPL|PLP|PLP/DM20|PMD|SPG2
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a transmembrane proteolipid protein that is the predominant component of myelin. The encoded protein may play a role in the compaction, stabilization, and maintenance of myelin sheaths, as well as in oligodendrocyte development and axonal survival. Mutations in this gene cause Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease and spastic paraplegia type 2. Alternatively splicing results in multiple transcript variants, including the DM20 splice variant.
Gene is located in Chromosome: X
Location in Chromosome : Xq22.2
Description of this Gene: proteolipid protein 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
Gene: RAB9B
Alternate names for this Gene: RAB9L|Rab-9L
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of a subfamily of RAS small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins that regulate membrane trafficking. The encoded protein may be involved in endosome-to-Golgi transport.
Gene is located in Chromosome: X
Location in Chromosome : Xq22.2
