Summary
TWNK (twinkle mtDNA helicase, HGNC:1160) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q24.31, encoding Twinkle mtDNA helicase (Q96RR1). Mitochondrial helicase involved in mtDNA replication and repair. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 44.0% of cell lines).
This gene encodes a hexameric DNA helicase which unwinds short stretches of double-stranded DNA in the 5’ to 3’ direction and, along with mitochondrial single-stranded DNA binding protein and mtDNA polymerase gamma, is thought to play a key role in mtDNA replication. The protein localizes to the mitochondrial matrix and mitochondrial nucleoids. Mutations in this gene cause infantile onset spinocerebellar ataxia (IOSCA) and progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO) and are also associated with several mitochondrial depletion syndromes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.

Function. Mitochondrial helicase involved in mtDNA replication and repair. Might have a role in mtDNA repair. Has DNA strand separation activity needed to form a processive replication fork for leading strand synthesis which is catalyzed by the formation of a replisome complex with POLG and mtSDB. Preferentially unwinds DNA substrates with pre-existing 5’-and 3’- single-stranded tails but is also active on a 5’- flap substrate. Can dissociate the invading strand of immobile or mobile D-loop DNA structures irrespective of the single strand polarity of the third strand. In addition to its DNA strand separation activity, also has DNA strand annealing, DNA strand-exchange and DNA branch migration activities. Lack DNA unwinding and ATP hydrolysis activities. Does not bind single-stranded or double-stranded DNA.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with LONP1. Homohexamer (via C-terminus), which assembles in a ring-like structure. Homoheptamer, which assembles in a ring-like structure. Homooctamer, which assembles in a ring-like structure. Oligomers may sequentially eject two monomers (octamer>heptamer>hexamer) upon DNA binding. Oligomerization is Mg(2+), nucleotide and DNA-independent, however, Mg(2+) and nucleotide stabilize the homohexameric form. Interacts with POLG in vitro. Monomer. Does not form oligomers.
Subcellular location. Mitochondrion matrix. Mitochondrion nucleoid. Mitochondrion inner membrane.
Tissue specificity. High relative levels in skeletal muscle, testis and pancreas. Lower levels of expression in the heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, kidney, spleen, thymus, prostate, ovary, small intestine, colon and leukocytes. Expression is coregulated with MRPL43.
Disease relevance. Progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions, autosomal dominant, 3 (PEOA3) [MIM:609286] A disorder characterized by progressive weakness of ocular muscles and levator muscle of the upper eyelid. In a minority of cases, it is associated with skeletal myopathy, which predominantly involves axial or proximal muscles and which causes abnormal fatigability and even permanent muscle weakness. Ragged-red fibers and atrophy are found on muscle biopsy. A large proportion of chronic ophthalmoplegias are associated with other symptoms, leading to a multisystemic pattern of this disease. Additional symptoms are variable, and may include cataracts, hearing loss, sensory axonal neuropathy, ataxia, depression, hypogonadism, and parkinsonism. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 7 (MTDPS7) [MIM:271245] A severe disease associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Some patients are affected by progressive atrophy of the cerebellum, brain stem, the spinal cord, and sensory axonal neuropathy. Clinical features include hypotonia, athetosis, ataxia, ophthalmoplegia, sensorineural hearing deficit, sensory axonal neuropathy, epileptic encephalopathy and female hypogonadism. In some individuals liver dysfunction and multi-organ failure is present. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Perrault syndrome 5 (PRLTS5) [MIM:616138] A form of Perrault syndrome, a sex-influenced disorder characterized by sensorineural deafness in both males and females, and ovarian dysgenesis in females. Affected females have primary amenorrhea, streak gonads, and infertility, whereas affected males show normal pubertal development and are fertile. PRLTS5 is an autosomal recessive form characterized by progressive ataxia, axonal neuropathy, hyporeflexia and abnormal eye movements, in addition to deafness and ovarian dysgenesis. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Strand annealing activity is inhibited by 150 mM NaCl (in vitro).
Domain organisation. N-terminus enhances protein stability and hexamer formation, which is important for DNA binding, and is required for DNA helicase activity and, ultimately, for mtDNA replisome processivity.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 107 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
