Zebrafish gene: pcdh19
Human gene: PCDH19 (protocadherin 19)
Homology score: 68%
ClinVar variants: 153
Gene description: Exhibits calcium ion binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in brain morphogenesis; neural tube formation; and visual perception. Localizes to integral component of membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; eye; immature eye; posterior neural keel; and spinal cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in early infantile epileptic encephalopathy 9. Orthologous to human PCDH19 (protocadherin 19).
