- ATXN2 summaryText "Mutations in ATXN2 cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 . The autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias are a heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive degeneration of the cerebellum, brain stem and spinal cord. Clinically, ADCA has been divided into three groups: ADCA types I-III. ADCAI is genetically heterogeneous, with five genetic loci, designated spinocerebellar ataxia 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6, being assigned to five different chromosomes. ADCAII, which always presents with retinal degeneration , and ADCAIII often referred to as the `pure' cerebellar syndrome , are most likely homogeneous disorders. Several SCA genes have been cloned and shown to contain CAG repeats in their coding regions. SCA2 is caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat in the coding region of the ATXN2 gene producing an elongated polyglutamine tract in the corresponding protein. The expanded repeats are variable in size and unstable, usually increasing in size when transmitted to successive generations. The function of the ataxins is not known. This locus has been mapped to chromosome 12, and it has been determined that the disease allele usually contains 34-52 CAG repeats, but can contain as few as 32 or more than 100. Normal alleles usually have 22 or 23 repeats, but can contain up to 31 repeats. A potential transcript variant, missing an internal coding exon, has been described; however, its full-length nature is not certain.".

In nonmuscle cells, the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions, where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies, where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments.

In the small intestine aminopeptidase N plays a role in the final digestion of peptides generated from hydrolysis of proteins by gastric and pancreatic proteases. Its function in proximal tubular epithelial cells and other cell types is less clear. The large extracellular carboxyterminal domain contains a pentapeptide consensus sequence characteristic of members of the zinc-binding metalloproteinase superfamily. Sequence comparisons with known enzymes of this class showed that CD13 and aminopeptidase N are identical. The latter enzyme was thought to be involved in the metabolism of regulatory peptides by diverse cell types, including small intestinal and renal tubular epithelial cells, macrophages, granulocytes, and synaptic membranes from the CNS.
