Name

ASPSCR1 Gene

alveolar soft part sarcoma chromosome region, candidate 1

The protein encoded by this gene contains a UBX domain and interacts with glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4). This protein is a tether, which sequesters the GLUT4 in intracellular vesicles in muscle and fat cells in the absence of insulin, and redistributes the GLUT4 to the plasma membrane within minutes of insulin stimulation. Translocation t(X;17)(p11;q25) of this gene with transcription factor TFE3 gene results in a ASPSCR1-TFE3 fusion protein in alveolar soft part sarcoma and in renal cell carcinomas. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

TAM Gene

Myeloproliferative syndrome, transient (transient abnormal

ASPM Gene

asp (abnormal spindle) homolog, microcephaly associated (Drosophila)

This gene is the human ortholog of the Drosophila melanogaster 'abnormal spindle' gene (asp), which is essential for normal mitotic spindle function in embryonic neuroblasts. Studies in mouse also suggest a role of this gene in mitotic spindle regulation, with a preferential role in regulating neurogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with microcephaly primary type 5. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

AOCH Gene

Acromegaloid features, overgrowth, cleft palate, and hernia

CLPTM1 Gene

cleft lip and palate associated transmembrane protein 1

Predicted to enable GABA receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of T cell differentiation in thymus. Located in membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

EEC2 Gene

ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia and cleft lip/palate syndrome 2

EEC1 Gene

ectrodactyly, ectodermal dysplasia and cleft lip/palate syndrome 1
