gene: lron-8 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to be located in extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Expressed in body wall musculature; head muscle; pharynx; and rectal gland cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 64; congenital stationary night blindness 1A; and stomach cancer. Is an ortholog of several human genes including LRRN1 (leucine rich repeat neuronal 1); LRRN2 (leucine rich repeat neuronal 2); and LRRN3 (leucine rich repeat neuronal 3).
