Maestro heat-like repeat family member 8 (MROH8)

Target
MROH8
Molecular classification
Other (belongs to the "maestro heat-like repeat-containing" protein family, but not classified under well-established therapeutic target classes such as receptor, enzyme, transporter, channel, etc.)
01

Overview

Maestro heat-like repeat family member 8 is a protein encoded by the MROH8 gene in humans. It belongs to the maestro heat-like repeat family, but its exact biological function is not known. The gene has been identified in genome-wide association studies as being associated with hippocampal atrophy in Alzheimer's disease and has alternative spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms. It is not currently considered a therapeutic target as there is no evidence of drug interaction or a defined functional role in key biological processes or disease mechanisms.
