TMEM271

Chr 4

transmembrane protein 271

TMEM271 encodes a protein predicted to be located in cellular membranes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, though the specific clinical phenotypes and inheritance patterns are not well-characterized in the current literature. Additional clinical and molecular studies are needed to fully define the disease spectrum associated with TMEM271 variants.
