Gene information for PMP22 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5376
Official gene symbolPMP22
Full nameperipheral myelin protein 22
Aliases,CMT1A,CMT1E,DSS,GAS-3,HMSNIA,HNPP,MGC20769,Sp110,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes an integral membrane protein that is a major component of myelin in the peripheral nervous system. Various mutations of this gene are causes of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Type IA, Dejerine-Sottas syndrome, and hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsies. Alternative splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants that encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq]
