NCIt definition : Human GDAP1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 8q21.11 and is approximately
197 kb in length. This allele, which encodes ganglioside-induced differentiation-associated
protein 1, plays a role in the regulation of mitochondrial fission and fusion. Mutations
in the gene are associated with several types of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, including
axonal type 2K, type 4A, axonal type with vocal cord paresis and recessive intermediate
type A.;
