DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.
The LRMDA gene (LRMDA stands for "Leucine Rich Melanocyte Differentiation Associated") is a protein-coding gene located at gene locus 10q22.2-q22.3. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified.
General informationThis section has been translated automatically.
The LRMDA gene encodes a leucine-rich repeat protein. The encoded protein is thought to play a role in melanocyte differentiation.
Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive oculocutaneous albinism 7 (OCA7) (Gronskov K et al. 2013).
