{"symbol":"LGSN","synonyms":["GLULD1"],"name":"lengsin, lens protein with glutamine synthetase domain","description":"This gene encodes a protein with similarity to the GS I members of the glutamine synthetase superfamily. The encoded protein is referred to as a pseudo-glutamine synthetase because it has no glutamine synthesis activity and may function as a chaperone protein. This protein is localized to the lens and may be associated with cataract disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
