NCIt synonyms : RNF205; Receptor-Associated Protein of the Synapse, 43kD Gene; Receptor-Associated Protein of the Synapse, 43-kD Gene; Receptor Associated Protein of the Synapse wt Allele; RAPSYN; FADS2; CMS11; FADS;
NCIt definition : Human RAPSN wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 11p11.2 and is approximately
11 kb in length. This allele, which encodes 43 kDa receptor-associated protein of
the synapse protein, is involved in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor clustering. Mutations
in the gene are associated with fetal akinesia deformation sequence 2 and congenital
myasthenic syndrome with acetylcholine receptor deficiency 11.;
