This gene encodes a member of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC). The DGC spans the sarcolemma and is comprised of dystrophin, syntrophin, alpha- and beta-dystroglycans and sarcoglycans. The DGC provides a structural link between the subsarcolemmal cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix of muscle cells. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
SSPN (Sarcospan) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with SSPN include Short Sleep, Familial Natural, 1 and Adrenal Carcinoma. Among its related pathways are Muscular Dystrophies and Dystrophin-Glycoprotein Complex.
