GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

LRRC8A (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

FLJ10337, KIAA1437, LRRC8, SWELL1

Description

Leucine rich repeat containing 8 family, member A (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a protein belonging to the leucine-rich repeat family of proteins, which are involved in diverse biological processes, including cell adhesion, cellular trafficking, and hormone-receptor interactions. This family member is a putative four-pass transmembrane protein that plays a role in B cell development. Defects in this gene cause autosomal dominant non-Bruton type agammaglobulinemia, an immunodeficiency disease resulting from defects in B cell maturation. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
