GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
NIPA1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
MGC35570, SPG6
Description
Non imprinted in Prader-Willi/Angelman syndrome 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a magnesium transporter that associates with early endosomes and the cell surface in a variety of neuronal and epithelial cells. This protein may play a role in nervous system development and maintenance. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant spastic paraplegia 6. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
