Protein found in humans
Dystrobrevin alpha is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the DTNA
gene .
[5]
[6]
[7]
Function
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the
dystrobrevin subfamily and the
dystrophin family. This protein is a component of the
dystrophin-associated protein complex (DPC). The DPC consists of dystrophin and several integral and peripheral membrane proteins, including
dystroglycans ,
sarcoglycans ,
syntrophins and alpha- and beta-dystrobrevin. The DPC localizes to the sarcolemma and its disruption is associated with various forms of
muscular dystrophy . This protein may be involved in the formation and stability of
synapses as well as the clustering of
nicotinic acetylcholine receptors . Multiple
alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
[7]
Clinical significance
Mutations in DTNA are associated with
Ménière's disease .
[8]
[9]
Interactions
Dystrobrevin has been shown to
interact with dystrophin.
