ASPM wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human ASPM wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 1q31 and is approximately 63 kb in length. This allele, which encodes abnormal spindle-like microcephaly-associated protein, is involved in the regulation of the mitotic spindle. Mutation of the gene is associated with primary microcephaly type 5.
