All MAGUKs contain a PDZ-SH3-GUK core and are divided into 4 subfamilies, DLG-like (see DLG1; MIM 601014), ZO1-like (see TJP1; MIM 601009), p55-like (see MPP1; MIM 305360), and LIN2-like (see CASK; MIM 300172), based on their size and the presence of additional domains. MPP6 is a member of the p55-like MAGUK subfamily (Tseng et al., 2001 [PubMed 11311936]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":51678,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/51678","proteins":[{"symbol":"MPP6_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/MPP6_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"Membrane-associated guanylate kinases","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/Membrane-associated+guanylate+kinases"}]}
