Description
Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2L and distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type 2A. Is expressed in several structures, including cephalic musculature; immature eye; midbrain hindbrain boundary neural rod; nervous system; and pericardial region. Orthologous to human HSPB8 (heat shock protein family B (small) member 8).
