fukutin

Also known as: CMD1X, FCMD, LGMD2M, LGMDR13, MDDGA4, MDDGB4, MDDGC4

The encoded protein is a transmembrane glycosyltransferase localized to the cis-Golgi compartment that glycosylates alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle and plays a role in brain development. Mutations cause congenital muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type A4, characterized by congenital onset muscular dystrophy with brain and eye anomalies. This condition follows autosomal recessive inheritance.
