EPM4

Chr 4AR

scavenger receptor class B member 2

Also known as: AMRF, CD36L2, EPM4, HLGP85, LGP85, LIMP-2, LIMPII, SR-BII

This gene encodes a type III glycoprotein located in lysosomal and endosomal limiting membranes that participates in membrane transportation and reorganization of endosomal/lysosomal compartments. Mutations cause autosomal recessive progressive myoclonic epilepsy-4 (EPM4), also known as action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome, which involves the neurologic and renal systems. The condition follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.
