ATP13A2
Template:Short description Template:Infobox gene Probable cation-transporting ATPase 13A2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ATP13A2 gene that is involved in the transport of divalent transition metal cations.[1][2][3] It appears to protect cells from manganese[4] and zinc toxicity,[5] possibly by causing cellular efflux and/or lysosomal sequestration; and from iron toxicity, possibly by preserving lysosome integrity against iron-induced lipid peroxidation.[6] However, it potentiates the toxic effects of cadmium and nickel on developing neurites,[7] and of the widely used herbicide paraquat[8] possibly by increasing polyamine uptake.[9]
Deficiency is associated with spastic paraplegia and Kufor-Rakeb syndrome, in which there is progressive parkinsonism with dementia.[10]
