DISEASE | Defects in DYM are the cause of Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen syndrome (DMC) [MIM:223800]. DMC is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by short trunk dwarfism, microcephaly and psychomotor retardation. Electron microscopic study of cutaneous cells of affected patients shows dilated rough endoplasmic reticulum, enlarged and aberrant vacuoles and numerous vesicles. DMC is progressive. Defects in DYM are the cause of Smith-McCort dysplasia (SMC) [MIM:607326]. SMC is a rare autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia characterized by short limbs and trunk with barrel-shaped chest. The radiographic phenotype includes platyspondyly, generalized abnormalities of the epiphyses and metaphyses, and a distinctive lacy appearance of the iliac crest, features identical to those of Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen syndrome. |

Background Descriptions | Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen syndrome (DMC), a rare autosomal recessive disorder, is characterized by microcephaly, short trunk dwarfism and sometime psychomotor retardation. Cutaneous cells of affected individuals show dilated rough endoplasmic reticulum and enlarged vacuoles. The Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen syndrome protein, also designated dymeclin, may play a role in proteoglycan metabolism and intracellular protein digestion. It is a widely expressed multi-pass membrane protein, detected primarily in chondrocytes and fetal brain tissue. Defects in dymeclin are also the cause of Smith-McCort dysplasis syndrome (SMC), which has characteristics identical to those of Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen syndrome. |

Name | DYM |
---|---|
Function | Necessary for correct organization of Golgi apparatus. Involved in bone development. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Golgi apparatus. Membrane; Lipid-anchor. Note=Sequence analysis programs clearly predict 1 transmembrane region. However, PubMed:18996921 shows that it is not a stably anchored transmembrane protein but it weakly associates with the Golgi apparatus and shuttles between the Golgi and the cytosol |
Tissue Location | Expressed in most embryo-fetal and adult tissues. Abundant in primary chondrocytes, osteoblasts, cerebellum, kidney, lung, stomach, heart, pancreas and fetal brain. Very low or no expression in the spleen, thymus, esophagus, bladder and thyroid gland |
