Background Information
SPG20 (spastic paraplegia 20) gene encodes a multifunctional Spartin protein. SPG20 protein is highly expressed in adipose tissue and may be implicated in endosomal trafficking and microtubule dynamics. SPG20 is mutated in Troyer syndrome, a hereditary spastic paraplegia defined by degeneration of upper motor neurons, recent study showed that regulation of SPG20 on mitochondrial calcium homeostasis may contribute to the pathophysiology of Troyer syndrome. Hypermethylation of SPG20 promoter, found in colorectal cancer patients, may play a role in cytokinesis arrest in colorectal tumorigenesis.
