Our homology model of TBC1D24 is featured in a journal article on Human Molecular Genetics. Mutations in this protein are responsible for a broad range of diseases, including epilepsy, DOORS syndrome and hearing loss.

Our model complements the titanic experimental effort of Dr. Mattéa Finelli and collaborators, unveiling that TBC1D24 is crucial for normal presynaptic function, and that disease-causing mutations affect neuronal development and survival.
