MAP1B wt Allele

**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human MAP1B wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 5q13.2 and is approximately 102 kb in length. This allele, which encodes microtubule-associated protein 1B, is involved in tubulin binding, the assembly of microtubules and neuronal differentiation. Mutation of the gene is associated with autosomal dominant deafness 83 and periventricular nodular heterotopia 9.
