Background
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the dystrobrevin subfamily of the dystrophin family. This protein is a component of the dystrophin-associated protein complex (DPC), which 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. Mutations in this gene are associated with left ventricular noncompaction with congenital heart defects. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
alternative products:Additional isoforms seem to exist,disease:Defects in DTNA are a cause of non-compaction of left ventricular myocardium with congenital heart defects (LVNCCHD) [MIM:606617]; also known as non-isolated left ventricular non-compaction. LVNCCHD is associated with congenital heart anomalies such as ventricular septal defects, pulmonic stenosis, and atrial septal defects.,disease:Defects in DTNA are the cause of non-compaction of left ventricular myocardium isolated autosomal dominant type 1 (LVNC1) [MIM:604169]. Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is due to an arrest of myocardial morphogenesis. The disorder is characterized by a hypertrophic left ventricular with deep trabeculations and with poor systolic function, with or without associated left ventricular dilation. In some cases, the right ventricle is also affected.,domain:The coiled coil domain mediates the inter
