Gene: [04p163/HD] huntingtin (HD protein); Huntington disease;
FUN | Huntingtin and huntingtin-associated protein (GEM:00.0/HAP1) may play a role in vesicle trafficking within the cell, and disruption of this function could contribute to the neuronal dysfunction and death seen in HD (Engelender-1997)." |
PAT | Huntington disease may be caused by a toxic gain-of-function due to abnormal protein-protein interactions. The huntingtin-interacting proteins include the glycolytic enzyme GAPD (GEM:12p13/GAPD), huntingtin-associated protein (GEM:00.0/HAP1), and huntingtin-interacting proteins (GEM:07q1123/HIP1; GEM:04p14/HIP2)." |
MAF | Bucan-1990 reported a physical map of p16.3 subsegment with 20 restriction fragments, which covered in total over 4.3 Mb between anonymous fragments D4S10 (G8, the centromeric flank of the subsegment) and D4S90 (D5, the telomeric flank). Gene HD itself is most probably located more distally than G8, between markers D4S114/D4S113 and the telomere, i.e., within 1.5 Mb from D5 to the proximal." |
