The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the maestro heat-like repeat family. The exact function of this gene is not known, however, in a genome-wide association study using hippocampal atrophy as a quantitative trait, this gene has been associated with Alzheimer's disease (PMID:19668339). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
MROH8 (Maestro Heat Like Repeat Family Member 8) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with MROH8 include Ischemic Neuropathy and Chorioretinal Scar. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include binding. An important paralog of this gene is MROH7.
This gene was present in the common ancestor of chordates.
