Background Information
Alpha-sarcoglycan is a member of the sarcoglycan-sarcospan complex (SG-SSPN), which is constituted by α/ɛ-, β-, γ-, and δ-SGs as well as SSPN. Alpha-sarcoglycan gene expression is exclusive of striated muscle and is finely regulated during myogenic differentiation, where the amount of alpha-sarcoglycan transcript is selectively increased after differentiation to myotubes (MTs). Alpha sarcoglycan's disruption causes limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
