KEGG   DISEASE: Goldberg-Shprintzen megacolon syndrome
Entry
H00936                      Disease                                
Name
Goldberg-Shprintzen megacolon syndrome;
Goldberg-Shprintzen syndrome (GOSHS)
Description
Goldberg-Shprintzen megacolon syndrome is a rare disorder caused by inactivating mutations in the kinesin binding protein (KBP) and is characterized by central and enteric nervous system defects. Clinical features of this syndrome include polymicrogyria, mild mental retardation, microcephaly, facial dysmorphisms, and short-segment Hirschsprung disease. The precise function of KBP is largely unclear, but it is required for cell differentiation and neurite development.
