Summary
CHCHD2 (coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain containing 2, HGNC:21645) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 7p11.2, encoding Coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helix domain-containing protein 2 (Q9Y6H1). Transcription factor. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 59.6% of cell lines).
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a class of eukaryotic CX(9)C proteins characterized by four cysteine residues spaced ten amino acids apart from one another. These residues form disulfide linkages that define a CHCH fold. In response to stress, the protein translocates from the mitochondrial intermembrane space to the nucleus where it binds to a highly conserved 13 nucleotide oxygen responsive element in the promoter of cytochrome oxidase 4I2, a subunit of the terminal enzyme of the electron transport chain. In concert with recombination signal sequence-binding protein J, binding of this protein activates the oxygen responsive element at four percent oxygen. In addition, it has been shown that this protein is a negative regulator of mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. In response to apoptotic stimuli, mitochondrial levels of this protein decrease, allowing BCL2-associated X protein to oligomerize and activate the caspase cascade. Pseudogenes of this gene are found on multiple chromosomes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Disease relevance. Parkinson disease 22 (PARK22) [MIM:616710] An autosomal dominant form of Parkinson disease, a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, resting tremor, muscular rigidity and postural instability, as well as by a clinically significant response to treatment with levodopa. The pathology involves the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the presence of Lewy bodies (intraneuronal accumulations of aggregated proteins), in surviving neurons in various areas of the brain. The gene represented in this entry may be involved in disease pathogenesis.
Induction. Up-regulated by hypoxia (4% oxygen) (at protein level).
