SGCG

Gamma-sarcoglycan is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the SGCG is_associated_with::gene.

Function
Gamma-sarcoglycan is one of several sarcolemmal transmembrane glycoproteins that interact with is_associated_with::dystrophin, probably to provide a link between the membrane associated cytoskeleton and the extracellular matrix. Defects in the protein can lead to early onset autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy, in particular is_associated_with::limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, type 2C (LGMD2C).

Interactions
SGCG has been shown to interact with FLNC.
