=== Gene ===

The ''CLPB'' gene has 19 exons and is located at the chromosome band 11q13.4.<ref name="entrez" />

=== Protein ===

Skd3 has five isoforms due to alternative splicing. Isoform 1 is considered to have the 'canonical' sequence. The protein is 78.7 kDa in size and composed of 707 amino acids.

== Clinical significance ==

Neonatal encephalopathy is a kind of severe neurological impairment in the newborn with no specific clinical sign at the early stage of life, and its diagnosis remains a challenge. This neonatal encephalopathy includes a heterogeneous group of 3-methylglutaconic aciduria syndromes and loss of Skd3 function is reported to be one of the causes. Knocking down the ''clpB'' gene in the zebrafish induced reduction of growth and increment of motor activity, which is similar to the signs observed in patients.<ref name="pmid25650066"/> Its loss may lead to a broad phenotypic spectrum encompassing intellectual disability/developmental delay, congenital neutropenia, progressive brain atrophy, movement disorder, and bilateral cataracts, with 3-methylglutaconic aciduria.<ref name="pmid25597510"/><ref name="pmid26916670"/><ref name="pmid27290639">{{cite journal | vauthors = Pronicka E, Piekutowska-Abramczuk D, Ciara E, Trubicka J, Rokicki D, Karkucińska-Więckowska A, Pajdowska M, Jurkiewicz E, Halat P, Kosińska J, Pollak A, Rydzanicz M, Stawinski P, Pronicki M, Krajewska-Walasek M, Płoski R | title = New perspective in diagnostics of mitochondrial disorders: two years' experience with whole-exome sequencing at a national paediatric centre | journal = Journal of Translational Medicine | volume = 14 | issue = 1 | page = 174 | date = 12 June 2016 | pmid = 27290639 | doi = 10.1186/s12967-016-0930-9 | pmc=4903158 | doi-access = free }}</ref> Further investigation into Skd3 may shed a new light on the diagnosis of this disease.
