NCIt definition : Human TBCE wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1q42.3 and is approximately
85 kb in length. This allele, which encodes tubulin-specific chaperone E protein,
is involved in both tubulin folding and tubulin dimer dissociation. Mutations in the
gene are associated with progressive encephalopathy with amyotrophy and optic atrophy,
hypoparathyroidism-retardation-dysmorphism syndrome and Kenny-Caffey syndrome 1.;
