Inferred by orthology to human genes with DO annotation (HGNC:3622)
Disease_relevance
The human ortholog of elegans TO7D3.4, Fukutin, is required for normal glycosylation of the cell surface laminin receptor, alpha-dystroglycan; mutations in Fukutin cause cardiomyopathy and Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), an inherited condition that predominantly affects the muscles, brain, and eyes, due to weakness and wasting of skeletal muscles.
