Summary | This gene encodes a member of the dynamin subfamily of GTP-binding proteins. The encoded protein is a GTPase which is required for membrane recycling, including vesicle endocytosis in neurons. It may also be involved in cellular fission via association with microtubules and actin filaments. Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause seizures. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]. |
