ADGRG1

Chr 16AR

adhesion G protein-coupled receptor G1

Also known as: BFPP, BPPR, CDCBM14B, CDCBM15A, GPR56, TM7LN4, TM7XN1

ADGRG1 encodes an adhesion G-protein coupled receptor that regulates cortical development by maintaining pial basement membrane integrity and controlling neuronal migration through RhoA pathway signaling. Mutations cause autosomal recessive bilateral frontoparietal or perisylvian polymicrogyria, representing complex cortical dysplasias with other brain malformations. The gene is not highly constrained against loss-of-function variants, consistent with its recessive inheritance pattern.
