AFG3L2 - AFG3 like matrix AAA peptidase subunit 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as OPA12; SCA28; SPAX5

Gene ID: 10939 | Gene type: protein coding

About AFG3L2

Cytogenetic location: 18p11.21 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 18:12,328,944-12,377,227 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 192 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 38.9), heart (RPKM 35.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein localized in mitochondria and closely related to paraplegin. The paraplegin gene is responsible for an autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia. This gene is a candidate gene for other hereditary spastic paraplegias or neurodegenerative disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
