    Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the ganglioside-induced differentiation-associated protein family, which may play a role in a signal transduction pathway during neuronal development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with various forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease and neuropathy. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms and a noncoding variant have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

    Summary from GeneReviews: Go to GeneReviews

    Disease Characteristics
    Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy type 4A (CMT4A), an aggressive form of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy (HMSN), is confined to the peripheral nervous system, and typically affects the lower extremities earlier and more severely than the upper extremities. As the neuropathy progresses, the distal upper extremities also become severely affected. Even proximal muscles can become weak. Age at onset is from infancy to early childhood. In most cases, disease progression causes disabilities within the first or second decade of life. At the end of the second decade, most individuals are wheelchair bound. Disease progression varies considerably even within the same family. The neuropathy can be either of the demyelinating type with reduced nerve conduction velocities or the axonal type with normal nerve conduction velocities. Vocal cord paresis is common. Intelligence is normal. Life expectancy is usually not affected, but on occasion may be reduced because of secondary complications.
    Diagnosis Testing
    Diagnosis of CMT4A is based on clinical findings and confirmed by molecular genetic testing of GDAP1, the only gene known to be associated with CMT4A. Such testing is clinically available.
    Genetic Counseling
    CMT4A is usually inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. The asymptomatic parents of an affected individual are obligate heterozygotes (carriers) and therefore carry one mutant allele. Each sib of an affected individual has a 25% chance of being affected, a 50% chance of being an asymptomatic carrier, and a 25% chance of being unaffected and not a carrier. Carrier testing for at-risk relatives and prenatal testing for pregnancies at increased risk are possible for families in which the disease-causing mutations have been identified.

    NCBI Reference Sequences (RefSeq)

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

    1. NR_046346.1 RNA Sequence

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) uses an alternate splice junction at the 3' end of an exon compared to variant 1, that causes a frameshift. The putative ORF is overlapped by a uORF with a strong Kozak signal, so it is not likely that this transcript is translated.
