Relevance to Autism
This gene has been associated with syndromic autism, where a subpopulation of individuals with a given syndrome develop autism. For example, positive genetic association has been found between a triplet repeat in the DMPK gene and autism with increasing repeat expansions in a Swedish population (Ekstrom et al., 2008).
Molecular Function
The protein encoded by this gene is a serine-threonine kinase that is closely related to other kinases that interact with members of the Rho family of small GTPases.
