FKTN Antibody immunohistochemistry analysis in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded human brain tissue followed by peroxidase conjugation of the secondary antibody and DAB staining.
The protein encoded by this gene is a putative
transmembrane protein that is localized to the cis-Golgi
compartment, where it may be involved in the glycosylation of
alpha-dystroglycan in skeletal muscle. The encoded protein is
thought to be a glycosyltransferase and could play a role in brain
development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Fukuyama-type
congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), Walker-Warburg syndrome
(WWS), limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2M (LGMD2M), and dilated
cardiomyopathy type 1X (CMD1X). Alternatively spliced transcript
variants have been found for this gene.1) Lim, B.C., et al. Neuromuscul. Disord. 20(8):524-530(2010)
