Summary: This gene encodes a member of the doublecortin family. The protein encoded by this gene contains two doublecortin domains. The doublecortin domain has been demonstrated to bind tubulin and enhance microtubule polymerization. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

Dcdc2 KOs displayed deficits on the Pairwise Discrimination task specifically as motion was added to visual stimuli.
Title: Evaluation of visual motion perception ability in mice with knockout of the dyslexia candidate susceptibility gene Dcdc2.
Behavioral results revealed deficits in rapid auditory processing, working memory and reference memory in Dcdc2(del2/del2) mice when compared with matched wild types.
Title: Mutation of Dcdc2 in mice leads to impairments in auditory processing and memory ability.
Results link the function of the dyslexia-associated gene Dcdc2 to spike timing through activity of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)
Title: The dyslexia-associated gene DCDC2 is required for spike-timing precision in mouse neocortex.
These results indicate that Dcdc2 is not required for neurogenesis, neuronal migration or differentiation in mice, but may have partial functional redundancy with doublecortin.
Title: Dcdc2 knockout mice display exacerbated developmental disruptions following knockdown of doublecortin.
heterozygous and homozygous mutations of Dcdc2 result in persistent visuo-spatial memory deficits, as well as visual discrimination and long-term memory deficits
Title: Mutation of the dyslexia-associated gene Dcdc2 impairs LTM and visuo-spatial performance in mice.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
