Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 79648
Gene name Microcephalin 1
Gene symbol MCPH1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
BRIT1MCT
Chromosome 8
Chromosome location 8p23.1
Summary This gene encodes a DNA damage response protein. The encoded protein may play a role in G2/M checkpoint arrest via maintenance of inhibitory phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary autosomal r
