NCIt definition : Human CDKL5 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of Xp22 and is approximately
228 kb in length. This allele, which encodes cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 protein,
is involved in the mediation of protein phosphorylation. Translocations and mutations
involving the gene are associated with X-linked infantile spasm syndrome 2. Rett syndrome
also is associated with defects in the gene.;
NCIt note : Translocations, t(X;7)(p22.3;p15) or t(X;6)(p22.3;q14) disrupt the sequence of the
CDKL5 gene and are associated with X-linked infantile spasm syndrome 2. (OMIM);
