About Tcap

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including BMP binding activity; cytoskeletal protein binding activity; and titin Z domain binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of muscle. Acts upstream of or within adult heart development; otic vesicle formation; and somitogenesis. Located in Z disc. Is expressed in heart; otocyst; tail somite; and trunk somite. Used to study autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2G. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2G and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 25. Orthologous to human TCAP (titin-cap).
