Disease

TRI18_HUMAN Defects in MID1 are the cause of Opitz GBBB syndrome 1 (OGS1) [MIM:300000. A congenital midline malformation syndrome characterized by hypertelorism, genital-urinary defects such as hypospadias in males and splayed labia in females, lip-palate-laryngotracheal clefts, imperforate anus, developmental delay and congenital heart defects. Note=MID1 mutations produce proteins with a decreased affinity for microtubules.^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}

Function

TRI18_HUMAN Has E3 ubiquitin ligase activity towards IGBP1, promoting its monoubiquitination, which results in deprotection of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase PP2A, and its subsequent degradation by polyubiquitination.^{[5] [6] [7]}
