Vectors for Human BEST1

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol BEST1
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name bestrophin 1
  • Other Aliases ARB; BEST; BMD; Best1V1Delta2; RP50; TU15B; VMD2
  • Other Desigations bestrophin-1; Best disease; vitelliform macular dystrophy protein 2
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the bestrophin gene family. This small gene family is characterized by proteins with a highly conserved N-terminus with four to six transmembrane domains. Bestrophins may form chloride ion channels or may regulate voltage-gated L-type calcium-ion channels. Bestrophins are generally believed to form calcium-activated chloride-ion channels in epithelial cells but they have also been shown to be highly permeable to bicarbonate ion transport in retinal tissue. Mutations in this gene are responsible for juvenile-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (VMD2), also known as Best macular dystrophy, in addition to adult-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD) and other retinopathies. Alternative splicing results in multiple variants encoding distinct isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
