TTC7A

Chr 2AR

tetratricopeptide repeat domain 7A

Also known as: GIDID, MINAT, TTC7

The protein localizes phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase to the plasma membrane and regulates phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate synthesis, which is essential for intestinal development. Mutations cause gastrointestinal defects and immunodeficiency syndrome, characterized by early onset inflammatory bowel disease and intestinal atresia. The condition follows autosomal recessive inheritance.
