NCIt definition : Human LITAF wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 16p13.13 and is approximately
93 kb in length. This allele, which encodes lipopolysaccharide-induced tumor necrosis
factor-alpha factor protein, plays a role in the modulation of cytokine gene expression,
endosomal protein trafficking and targeting proteins for lysosomal degradation. Mutations
in the gene are associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1C.;
