About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for CLN3 Gene:

This gene encodes a protein that is involved in lysosomal function. Mutations in this, as well as other neuronal

ceroid-lipofuscinosis (CLN) genes, cause neurodegenerative diseases commonly known as Batten disease or

collectively known as neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs). Many alternatively spliced transcript variants have

been found for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

GeneCards Summary for CLN3 Gene:

CLN3 (ceroid-lipofuscinosis, neuronal 3) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with CLN3 include juvenile batten disease, and batten disease. GO annotations related to this gene include unfolded protein binding. An important paralog of this gene is ENSG00000261832.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CLN3_HUMAN, Q13286

Function: Involved in microtubule-dependent, anterograde transport of late endosomes and lysosomes

Ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 3 (CLN3) [MIM:204200]: A form of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis.

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses are progressive neurodegenerative, lysosomal storage diseases characterized by

intracellular accumulation of autofluorescent liposomal material, and clinically by seizures, dementia, visual

loss, and/or cerebral atrophy. The hallmark of CLN3 is the ultrastructural pattern of lipopigment with a

fingerprint profile, which can have 3 different appearances: pure within a lysosomal residual body; in

conjunction with curvilinear or rectilinear profiles; and as a small component within large membrane-bound

lysosomal vacuoles. The combination of fingerprint profiles within lysosomal vacuoles is a regular feature of

blood lymphocytes from patients with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 3. Note=The disease is caused by

mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry
