NCIt definition : Human CNTNAP2 wild-type allele is located within 7q35-q36 and is approximately 2305
kb in length. This allele, which encodes contactin associated protein-like 2, may
play a role in axonal organization. Mutations in this gene are associated with cortical
dysplasia-focal epilepsy syndrome and may be involved in autism and the DFNB13 form
of nonsyndromic deafness.;
