Summary
AFG2B (AAA ATPase AFG2B, HGNC:28762) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 15q21.1, encoding ATPase family gene 2 protein homolog B (Q9BVQ7). ATP-dependent chaperone part of the 55LCC heterohexameric ATPase complex which is chromatin-associated and promotes replisome proteostasis to maintain replication fork progression and genome stability. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 95.7% of cancer cell lines).
Enables identical protein binding activity and preribosome binding activity. Involved in ribosomal large subunit biogenesis. Located in cytoplasm and spindle. Implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness.

Function. ATP-dependent chaperone part of the 55LCC heterohexameric ATPase complex which is chromatin-associated and promotes replisome proteostasis to maintain replication fork progression and genome stability. Required for replication fork progression, sister chromatid cohesion, and chromosome stability. The ATPase activity is specifically enhanced by replication fork DNA and is coupled to cysteine protease-dependent cleavage of replisome substrates in response to replication fork damage. Uses ATPase activity to process replisome substrates in S-phase, facilitating their proteolytic turnover from chromatin to ensure DNA replication and mitotic fidelity. Plays an essential role in the cytoplasmic maturation steps of pre-60S ribosomal particles by promoting the release of shuttling protein RSL24D1/RLP24 from the pre-ribosomal particles.
Subunit / interactions. Part of the 55LCC heterohexameric ATPase complex composed at least of AIRIM, AFG2A, AFG2B and CINP. Associates with pre-60S ribosomal particles.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Spindle. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in both neurons and glia during embryonic and adult stages of brain development.
Disease relevance. Deafness, autosomal recessive, 119 (DFNB119) [MIM:619615] A form of non-syndromic deafness characterized by mild to profound sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural hearing loss results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Neurodevelopmental disorder with hearing loss and spasticity (NEDHLS) [MIM:619616] An autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by hearing loss, global developmental delay, impaired intellectual development, hypotonia, spastic-dystonic cerebral palsy, focal or generalized epilepsy, and microcephaly. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. In the context of 55LCC heterohexameric ATPase complex, the ATPase activity is stimulated by DNA binding and inhibited in presence of RNA.
Similarity. Belongs to the AAA ATPase family. AFG2 subfamily.
