General annotation (Comments)
| Function | May act as a GTPase regulator. Controls survival and growth of spinal motoneurons By similarity. Ref.2 |
| Subunit structure | Forms a heteromeric complex with ALS2CL. Interacts with ALS2CL. Ref.9 |
| Involvement in disease | Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2 (ALS2) [MIM:205100]: A neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper motor neurons in the brain and lower motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord, resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. The pathologic hallmarks of the disease include pallor of the corticospinal tract due to loss of motor neurons, presence of ubiquitin-positive inclusions within surviving motor neurons, and deposition of pathologic aggregates. The etiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The disease is inherited in 5-10% of the cases. Juvenile primary lateral sclerosis (JPLS) [MIM:606353]: A neurodegenerative disorder which is closely related to but clinically distinct from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. It is a progressive paralytic disorder which results from dysfunction of the upper motor neurons while the lower neurons are unaffected. Infantile-onset ascending spastic paralysis (IAHSP) [MIM:607225]: Characterized by progressive spasticity and weakness of limbs. |
| Sequence similarities | Contains 1 DH (DBL-homology) domain. Contains 8 MORN repeats. Contains 1 PH domain. Contains 5 RCC1 repeats. Contains 1 VPS9 domain. |
| Sequence caution | The sequence BAB13389.2 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened. |
