Relevance to Autism
This gene was originally identified as an ASD candidate gene based on its enrichment in an autism-associated protein interaction module; sequencing of post-mortem brain tissue from 25 ASD cases resulted in the identification of significant non-synonymous variants in this gene with an expected false-positive rate at 0.1, confirming the involvement of this module with autism (Li et al., 2014).
Molecular Function
Serine/threonine kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway and plays a role in myoblast differentiation.
