NCIt definition : Human SCARB2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 4q21.1 and is approximately
76 kb in length. This allele, which encodes lysosome membrane protein 2, is involved
in the localization and endocytosis of glucosylceramidase and host cell entry of enterovirus
71. Mutation of the gene is associated with autosomal recessive progressive myoclonic
epilepsy-4 (EPM4; action myoclonus-renal failure syndrome; AMRF).;
