Gene name

LGSN (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

GLULD1, LGS

Description

Lengsin, lens protein with glutamine synthetase domain (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes a protein with similarity to the GS I members of the glutamine synthetase superfamily. The encoded protein is referred to as a pseudo-glutamine synthetase because it has no glutamine synthesis activity and may function as a chaperone protein. This protein is localized to the lens and may be associated with cataract disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
