Evolutionary and Structural Analyses of GDAP1, Involved in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease, Characterize a Novel Class of Glutathione Transferase-Related Genes
31 Oct 2003
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the Ganglioside-induced differentiation-associated protein-1 (GDAP1) gene cause autosomal recessive Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4A. The protein encoded by GDAP1 shows clear similarity to glutathione transferases (also known as glutathione S-transferases or GSTs). The human genome contains a paralog of GDAP1 called GDAP1L1. Using comparative genomics, we show that orthologs of GDAP1 and GDAP1L1...
