Computational Analysis and Polymorphism study of Tumor Suppressor Candidate Gene-3 for Non Syndromic Autosomal Recessive Mental Retardation

Mental Retardation (MR) is regarded as a neuronal malfunction characterized by a low Intellectual Quotient (IQ). To date, few genes (GRIK2, TUSC3, TRAPPC9, TECR, ST3GAL3, MED23, MAN1B1, NSUN1 PRSS12, CRBN, CC2D1A) for autosomal-recessive non syndromic MR (NS-ARMR) have been identified and established in various families with MR. The recently reported candidate gene “Tumor Suppressor Candidate Gene-3 (TUSC3)” was selected for computational analysis to explore its potential role in pathology as it is the only gene for MR reported i... view more»
