MDDGC5

Chr 19AR

fukutin related protein

Also known as: FKTR, LGMD2I, LGMDR9, MDC1C, MDDGA5, MDDGB5, MDDGC5

The protein is targeted to the medial Golgi apparatus and is necessary for posttranslational modification of dystroglycan. Mutations cause congenital muscular dystrophy with cognitive disability and cerebellar cysts, affecting both muscle and brain development from birth. This follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.
