Recently, paraplegin and spastin have been found to be mutated in two autosomal forms of hereditary spastic paraplegia. Both proteins harbour a common ATPase domain that expresses a chaperone function. Paraplegin is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial metalloprotease, while the exact role and subcellular localisation of spastin are still unclear.

Abstract
Recently, paraplegin and spastin have been found to be mutated in two autosomal forms of hereditary spastic paraplegia. Both proteins harbour a common ATPase domain that expresses a chaperone function. Paraplegin is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial metalloprotease, while the exact role and subcellular localisation of spastin are still unclear.File in questo prodotto:
