Disease
[TRI37_HUMAN] Defects in TRIM37 are the cause of mulibrey nanism (MUL) [MIM:253250]; also known as muscle-liver-brain-eye nanism. MUL is an autosomal recessive disorder that involves several tissues of mesodermal origin, implying a defect in a highly pleiotropic gene. Characteristic features include severe growth failure of prenatal onset and constrictive pericardium with consequent hepatomegaly. In addition, muscle hypotonia, J-shaped sella turcica, yellowish dots in the ocular fundi, typical dysmorphic features and hypoplasia of various endocrine glands causing hormonal deficiency are common.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
Function
[TRI37_HUMAN] E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase.[6]
