Summary

PRX (periaxin, HGNC:13797) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.2, encoding Periaxin (Q9BXM0). Scaffolding protein that functions as part of a dystroglycan complex in Schwann cells, and as part of EZR and AHNAK-containing complexes in eye lens fiber cells.

This gene encodes a protein involved in peripheral nerve myelin upkeep. The encoded protein contains 2 PDZ domains which were named after PSD95 (post synaptic density protein), DlgA (Drosophila disc large tumor suppressor), and ZO1 (a mammalian tight junction protein). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene which encode different protein isoforms and which are targeted differently in the Schwann cell. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuoropathy, type 4F and Dejerine-Sottas neuropathy.

Function. Scaffolding protein that functions as part of a dystroglycan complex in Schwann cells, and as part of EZR and AHNAK-containing complexes in eye lens fiber cells. Required for the maintenance of the peripheral myelin sheath that is essential for normal transmission of nerve impulses and normal perception of sensory stimuli. Required for normal transport of MBP mRNA from the perinuclear to the paranodal regions. Required for normal remyelination after nerve injury. Required for normal elongation of Schwann cells and normal length of the internodes between the nodes of Ranvier. The demyelinated nodes of Ranvier permit saltatory transmission of nerve impulses; shorter internodes cause slower transmission of nerve impulses. Required for the formation of appositions between the abaxonal surface of the myelin sheath and the Schwann cell plasma membrane; the Schwann cell cytoplasm is restricted to regions between these appositions. Required for the formation of Cajal bands and of Schmidt-Lanterman incisures that correspond to short, cytoplasm-filled regions on myelinated nerves. Recruits DRP2 to the Schwann cell plasma membrane. Required for normal protein composition of the eye lens fiber cell plasma membrane and normal eye lens fiber cell morphology.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer (via PDZ domain). Interacts with SCN10A. Found in a complex with SCN10A. Interacts with DRP2. Identified in a dystroglycan complex that contains at least PRX, DRP2, UTRN, DMD and DAG1. Detected in a complex composed of at least EZR, AHNAK, PPL and PRX. Identified in a complex with EZR, AHNAK, BFSP1, BFSP2, ANK2, PLEC, VIM and spectrin.

Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Nucleus. Cytoplasm Cytoplasm Cell membrane. Cell junction.

Tissue specificity. Detected in spinal cord. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are found in sciatic nerve and Schwann cells.

Disease relevance. Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) [MIM:145900] A severe degenerating neuropathy of the demyelinating Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease category, with onset by age 2 years. Characterized by motor and sensory neuropathy with very slow nerve conduction velocities, increased cerebrospinal fluid protein concentrations, hypertrophic nerve changes, delayed age of walking as well as areflexia. There are both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive forms of Dejerine-Sottas syndrome. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, demyelinating, type 4F (CMT4F) [MIM:614895] A recessive demyelinating form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a disorder of the peripheral nervous system, characterized by progressive weakness and atrophy, initially of the peroneal muscles and later of the distal muscles of the arms. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is classified in two main groups on the basis of electrophysiologic properties and histopathology: primary peripheral demyelinating neuropathies (designated CMT1 when they are dominantly inherited) and primary peripheral axonal neuropathies (CMT2). Demyelinating neuropathies are characterized by severely reduced nerve conduction velocities (less than 38 m/sec), segmental demyelination and remyelination with onion bulb formations on nerve biopsy, slowly progressive distal muscle atrophy and weakness, absent deep tendon reflexes, and hollow feet. By convention autosomal recessive forms of demyelinating Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease are designated CMT4. CMT4F is characterized by distal sensory impairment and distal muscle weakness and atrophy affecting the lower more than the upper limbs. The age at onset is variable and can range from childhood to adult years. When the onset is in infancy, the phenotype is characterized as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Domain organisation. Has a remarkable domain of repetitive pentameric units sometimes followed by a tripeptide spacer, it may separate two functional basic and acidic domains. The Arg/Lys-rich basic domain functions as a tripartite nuclear localization signal. The PDZ domain contains the signal for export from the nucleus. The N-terminal region including the PDZ domain is required for the formation of Cajal bands on myelinated nerves.

Similarity. Belongs to the periaxin family.
