NCIt definition : Human SYNJ1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 21q22.2 and is approximately
99 kb in length. This allele, which encodes synaptojanin-1 protein, is involved in
the modulation of clathrin-coated vesicle endocytosis. Mutation of the gene is associated
with early onset Parkinson disease 20.;
NCIt note : The SYNJ1 gene may be involved in the development of graft-vs.-host disease. (J Clin
Invest. 2013;123:4739-4754.);
