Microcephalin protein. This family of proteins is found in eukaryotes. Proteins in this family are typically between 384 and 835 amino acids in length. Microcephalin is involved in determining the size of the brain in animals. It is a protein, which if expressed homozygously causes the organism to have the condition microcephaly. Organisms expressing the mutated form of this protein in a homozygous manner develop a condition called microcephaly - a drastically reduced brain mass and volume. Microcephalin is predicted to contain three BRCA1 C-terminal domains, the first of which is the probable microcephaly mutation site.
No pairwise interactions found for the domain Microcephalin
Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:  No Conserved Features/Sites Found for Microcephalin
