[armadillo repeat gene deleted in VCFS] VCFS stands for Velocardiofacial syndrome, an autosomal dominant disordercharacterized by cleft palate, conotruncal heart defects, and facial dysmorphology.
The ARVCF protein is a human member of the catenin gene family, members of which are important for the formation of adherens junction complexes. The protein contains a nuclear localization sequence and 10 copies of the ARM domain. ARVCF protein interacts with Erbin and may be involved in the maintenance of the architecture of epithelial cells (see also: LAP proteins).
