CMT1A duplicated region transcript 15 like 2 (CDRT15L2)

CMT1A duplicated region transcript 15 like 2 (CDRT15L2) is a **protein-coding gene** found in humans, located on chromosome 17 (locus: 17p12)[1][2]. The corresponding protein is also referred to as CMT1A duplicated region transcript 15 protein-like protein. It is predicted to localize to cellular membranes, but its molecular function, endogenous substrate, and biological pathway involvement remain **uncharacterized** and are largely unknown as of current genomic and proteomic annotations[2][4][8]. There is no evidence that CDRT15L2 acts as a classical drug target such as a receptor, enzyme, ion channel, or transporter, nor is it an established biomarker or a factor in any defined safety concern. While the gene resides within the region duplicated in *Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Type 1A* (CMT1A), and has appeared in association studies (including mentions in Autism Spectrum Disorder), no mechanistic or functional disease association has been established[2]. The gene is included in protein and antibody catalogs primarily for research use[5][6].
