NCIt definition : Human CHAMP1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 13q34 and is approximately
23 kb in length. This allele, which encodes chromosome alignment-maintaining phosphoprotein
1, plays a role in chromosome alignment during metaphase. Mutation of the gene is
associated with neurodevelopmental disorder with hypotonia, impaired language, and
dysmorphic features (formerly autosomal dominant mental retardation 40; MRD40).;
