Background
This locus encodes a BTB/POZ domain-containing protein. This domain is known to be involved in protein-protein interactions. Polymorphisms at this locus have been reported to be associated with susceptibility to Restless Legs Syndrome and may also be associated with Tourette Syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011],
Function
disease:Genetic variations in BTBD9 are associated with susceptibility to restless legs syndrome type 6 (RLS6) [MIM:611185]; also called periodic limb movements in sleep. Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurologic disorder characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs during periods of rest. The majority of patients with RLS also have periodic limb movements in sleep, which are characterized by involuntary, highly stereotypical, regularly occurring limb movements that occur during sleep.,similarity:Contains 1 BACK (BTB/Kelch associated) domain.,similarity:Contains 1 BTB (POZ) domain.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in kidney and moderately expressed in all other adult and fetal tissues. Moderately expressed in all specific brain regions examined.,
