Gene: SLMAP
Alternate names for this Gene: SLAP
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a component of a conserved striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase complex. Striatin family complexes participate in a variety of cellular processes including signaling, cell cycle control, cell migration, Golgi assembly, and apoptosis. The protein encoded by this gene is a coiled-coil, tail-anchored membrane protein with a single C-terminal transmembrane domain that is posttranslationally inserted into membranes. Mutations in this gene are associated with Brugada syndrome, a cardiac channelopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 3
Location in Chromosome : 3p14.3
Description of this Gene: sarcolemma associated protein
Type of Gene: protein-coding
