Target Details for Ataxin 2

Target: Ataxin 2 (ATXN2)

Alternative Name: ATXN2

Background:

Synonyms: Ataxin-2,Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 protein,Trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 13 protein,ATXN2,ATX2, SCA2, TNRC13,

Tissue Specificity: Expressed in the brain, heart, liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas and placenta. Isoform 1 is predominant in the brain and spinal cord. Isoform 4 is more abundant in the cerebellum. In the brain, broadly expressed in the amygdala, caudate nucleus, corpus callosum, hippocampus, hypothalamus, substantia nigra, subthalamic nucleus and thalamus. .

Background: Ataxin-2, the protein encoded by the ATXN2 gene, contains a polyglutamine tract, long expansions (greater than 33 repeats) of which result in spinocerebellar ataxia-2 (SCA2), an autosomal dominant form of olivopontocerebellar atrophy. The gene for spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) has been mapped to 12q24.1. Ataxin-2 associates with L- and T-plastin and that overexpression of ataxin-2 leads to accumulation of T-plastin in mammalian cells.

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the ATG14 family.

Molecular Weight: 140 kDa
