Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in response to denervation involved in regulation of muscle adaptation and skeletal muscle tissue regeneration. Predicted to act upstream of or within membrane organization. Located in cell-cell junction; membrane raft; and sarcolemma. Part of sarcoglycan complex. Is expressed in several structures, including foregut; heart; limb interdigital region; musculature; and paraxial mesenchyme. Used to study autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2D and muscular dystrophy. Orthologous to human SGCA (sarcoglycan alpha).
