Genes affected

EXOC8 (HGNC:24659): (exocyst complex component 8) This gene encodes a component of the exocyst complex, an evolutionarily conserved multi-protein complex that plays a critical role in vesicular trafficking and the secretory pathway by targeting post-Golgi vesicles to the plasma membrane. This protein is a target of activated Ral subfamily of GTPases and thereby regulates exocytosis by tethering vesicles to the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene may be related to Joubert syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

EXOC8 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• neurodevelopmental disorder with microcephaly, seizures, and brain atrophy

  Inheritance: AR Classification: STRONG, LIMITED Submitted by: Ambry Genetics, Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae)
