Description | growth differentiation factor 6(GDF6) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate each subunit of the disulfide-linked homodimer. This protein is required for normal formation of some bones and joints in the limbs, skull, and axial skeleton. Mutations in this gene are associated with Klippel-Feil syndrome, microphthalmia, and Leber congenital amaurosis. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016], |

Protein Function | disease:A chromosomal aberration involving GDF6 is associated with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) [MIM:118100]. Paracentric inv(8)(q22;2q23.3).,disease:Defects in GDF6 are associated with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) [MIM:118100]. Klippel-Feil syndrome is a complex skeletal disorder characterized by congenital fusion of vertebrae within the anterior/cervical spine. Vertebral fusion appears to be caused by a failure in the normal segmentation of vertebrae during the early weeks of fetal development and defective somitogenesis has been postulated as a mitigating factor. However, the etiology of KFS is still unknown and no definitive disease-causing genes have yet been identified. Although most cases are sporadic, both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance have been reported.,function:Required for normal formation of bones and joints in the limbs, skull, and axial skeleton. Play a key role in establishing boundaries between skeletal elements during development.,similarity:Belongs to the TGF-beta family.,subunit:Homodimer; disulfide-linked., |
