MDDGC4

Chr 9AR

fukutin

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

The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane glycosyltransferase localized to the cis-Golgi compartment that glycosylates alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle and is involved in brain development. Mutations cause a spectrum of congenital muscular dystrophies including Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy, Walker-Warburg syndrome, limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2M, and dilated cardiomyopathy type 1X, affecting muscle, brain, and cardiac systems. These conditions follow autosomal recessive inheritance.
