gene geneOn this page
Summary
TECPR2 (tectonin beta-propeller repeat containing 2, HGNC:19957) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 14q32.33, encoding Tectonin beta-propeller repeat-containing protein 2 (O15040). Probably plays a role as positive regulator of autophagy.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tectonin beta-propeller repeat-containing (TECPR) family, and contains both TECPR and tryptophan-aspartic acid repeat (WD repeat) domains. This gene has been implicated in autophagy, as reduced expression levels of this gene have been associated with impaired autophagy. Recessive mutations in this gene have been associated with a hereditary form of spastic paraparesis (HSP). HSP is characterized by progressive spasticity and paralysis of the legs. There is also some evidence linking mutations in this gene with birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR), which results in inflammation of the choroid and retina. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Function. Probably plays a role as positive regulator of autophagy.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with the ATG8 family members GABARAP, GABARAPL1, GABARAPL2, MAP1LC3B and MAP1LC3C.
Tissue specificity. Detected in skin fibroblast (at protein level).
Disease relevance. Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, 9, with developmental delay (HSAN9) [MIM:615031] A form of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by degeneration of dorsal root and autonomic ganglion cells, and by sensory and/or autonomic abnormalities. HSAN9 is characterized by global developmental delay and intellectual disability, axial and appendicular hypotonia, dysarthria, and an abnormal gait that is often described as ataxic. Other features may include peripheral neuropathy, hyporeflexia, and autonomic dysfunction. Affected individuals also have dysmorphic features, thin corpus callosum on brain imaging, and episodes of central apnea, which may be fatal. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the WD repeat KIAA0329 family.
