DAGA5KRAGNSPNSPN1SPN2
Chromosome 12
Chromosome location 12p12.1
Summary This gene encodes a member of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC). The DGC spans the sarcolemma and is comprised of dystrophin, syntrophin, alpha- and beta-dystroglycans and sarcoglycans. The DGC provides a structural link between the subsarcolemmal
