Comments
  • FUNCTION: Involved in neurodegeneration. Acts as component of the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex. Mediates the interaction of STAGA complex with the CRX and is involved in CRX-dependent gene activation.
  • SUBUNIT: Component of the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex, at least composed of SUPT3H, GCN5L2, TAF5L, TAF6L, SUPT7L, TADA3L, TAD1L, TAF10, TAF12, TRRAP, TAF9 and ATXN7. The STAGA core complex is associated with a subcomplex required for histone deubiquitinylation composed of ATXN7L3, ENY2 and USP22. Interacts with SORBS1, PSMC1 and CRX. Interacts with TRRAP, GCN5L2 and TAF10.
  • INTERACTION:
    Q9Y4A5:TRRAP; NbExp=1; IntAct=EBI-708350, EBI-399128;
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Nucleus, nucleolus. Nucleus matrix. Note=In addition to a diffuse distribution throughout the nucleus, it is associated with the nuclear matrix and the nucleolus.
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform b: Cytoplasm.
  • ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: 2 named isoforms [FASTA] produced by alternative splicing.
    Namea
    SynonymsAtaxin-7a
    Isoform IDO15265-1
    Note: Nuclear.
    This is the isoform sequence displayed in this entry.
    Nameb
    SynonymsAtaxin-7b, SCA7b
    Isoform IDO15265-2
    Note: Cytoplasmic.
    Features which should be applied to build the isoform sequence: VSP_007695.
  • TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoform a and isoform b are expressed in CNS, but isoform a is expressed predominantly in the peripherical tissues. Isoform b is also highly expressed in the frontal lobe, skeletal muscle and spinal cord and is expressed at a lower level in the lung, lymphoblast and intestine.
  • PTM: Proteolytically cleaved. The cleavage may be involved in SCA7 degeneration: the isoform fragments may exert distinct toxic influences that could contribute to selective neurodegeneration.
  • POLYMORPHISM: The poly-Gln region of ATXN7 is highly polymorphic (4 to 18 repeats) in the normal population and is expanded to about 38-130 repeats in SCA7 patients. Intermediate alleles with 28 to 35 repeats are prone to further expansion.
  • DISEASE: Defects in ATXN7 are the cause of spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) [MIM:164500]; also known as olivopontocerebellar atrophy III (OPCA III or OPCA3) or olivopontocerebellar atrophy with retinal degeneration. Spinocerebellar ataxia is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of cerebellar disorders. Patients show progressive incoordination of gait and often poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movements, due to degeneration of the cerebellum with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. SCA7 belongs to the autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias type II (ADCA II) which are characterized by cerebellar ataxia with retinal degeneration and pigmentary macular dystrophy.
  • SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ataxin-7 family.
  • SIMILARITY: Contains 1 SCA7 domain.
  • WEB RESOURCE: Name=GeneReviews; URL="http://www.genetests.org/query?gene=ATXN7";.
