Summary

PMPCA (peptidase, mitochondrial processing subunit alpha, HGNC:18667) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9q34.3, encoding Mitochondrial-processing peptidase subunit alpha (Q10713). Substrate recognition and binding subunit of the essential mitochondrial processing protease (MPP), which cleaves the mitochondrial sequence off newly imported precursors proteins. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 99.2% of cancer cell lines).

The protein encoded by this gene is found in the mitochondrion, where it represents the alpha subunit of a proteolytic heterodimer. This heterodimer is responsible for cleaving the transit peptide from nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive 2.

Function. Substrate recognition and binding subunit of the essential mitochondrial processing protease (MPP), which cleaves the mitochondrial sequence off newly imported precursors proteins.

Subunit / interactions. Heterodimer of PMPCA (alpha) and PMPCB (beta) subunits, forming the mitochondrial processing protease (MPP) in which PMPCA is involved in substrate recognition and binding and PMPCB is the catalytic subunit.

Subcellular location. Mitochondrion matrix. Mitochondrion inner membrane.

Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed with highest expression in fetal tissues and adult brain, cerebellum and cerebellar vermis.

Disease relevance. Spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive, 2 (SCAR2) [MIM:213200] A form of spinocerebellar ataxia, a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of cerebellar disorders due to degeneration of the cerebellum with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. SCAR2 is characterized by onset of impaired motor development and ataxic gait in early childhood. Additional features often include loss of fine motor skills, dysarthria, nystagmus, cerebellar signs, and delayed cognitive development with intellectual disability. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Similarity. Belongs to the peptidase M16 family.
