HCLS1-associated protein X-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HAX1 gene. [5] [6] [7]
The protein encoded by this gene is known to associate with HS1, a substrate of Src family tyrosine kinases. It also interacts with the product of PKD2 gene, mutations in which are associated with autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease, and with F-actin-binding protein, cortactin. It was earlier thought that this gene product is mainly localized in the mitochondria, however, recent studies indicate it to be localized in the cell body. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [7]
In 2015, localization of the protein to P-bodies was demonstrated. [8]
Homozygous mutations in HAX1 are associated with autosomal recessive severe congenital neutropenia. [9]
HAX1 has been shown to interact with IL1A. [10] The protein has also been shown to interact with the 3' untranslated regions of vimentin and DNA polymerase B transcripts. [8] The protein has been shown to interact with the mitochondrial protein disaggregase Skd3 and Skd3 has been shown to be essential for HAX1 solubility within mitochondria. [11]
Severe congenital neutropenia (SCN), also often known as Kostmann syndrome or disease, is a group of rare disorders that affect myelopoiesis, causing a congenital form of neutropenia, usually without other physical malformations. SCN manifests in infancy with life-threatening bacterial infections.
DnaJ homolog subfamily A member 3, mitochondrial, also known as Tumorous imaginal disc 1 (TID1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DNAJA3 gene on chromosome 16. This protein belongs to the DNAJ/Hsp40 protein family, which is known for binding and activating Hsp70 chaperone proteins to perform protein folding, degradation, and complex assembly. As a mitochondrial protein, it is involved in maintaining membrane potential and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) integrity, as well as cellular processes such as cell movement, growth, and death. Furthermore, it is associated with a broad range of diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases, inflammatory diseases, and cancers.
Frizzled-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FZD7 gene.
Polycystin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PKD2 gene.
Low-density lipoprotein receptor adapter protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LDLRAP1 gene.
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 4B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the VPS4B gene.
TRIO and F-actin-binding protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TRIOBP gene.
Claudin-14 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN14 gene. It belongs to a related family of proteins called claudins.
Sodium bicarbonate transporter-like protein 11 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC4A11 gene.
Heat shock factor protein 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSF4 gene.
Zinc finger protein 638 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZNF638 gene.
Myosin-Ia is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYO1A gene.
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM63, also known as "MuRF1" is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the TRIM63 gene.
Periphilin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PPHLN1 gene.
ATPase WRNIP1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the WRNIP1 gene. The protein is a member of AAA ATPase family.
Interphotoreceptor matrix proteoglycan 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IMPG1 gene.
Mitochondrial import inner membrane translocase subunit TIM14 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DNAJC19 gene on chromosome 3. TIM14 belongs to the DnaJ family, which has been involved in Hsp40/Hsp70 chaperone systems. As a mitochondrial chaperone, TIM14 functions as part of the TIM23 complex import motor to facilitate the import of nuclear-encoded proteins into the mitochondria. TIM14 also complexes with prohibitin complexes to regulate mitochondrial morphogenesis, and has been implicated in dilated cardiomyopathy with ataxia.
Caseinolytic peptidase B protein homolog (CLPB), also known as Skd3, is a mitochondrial AAA ATPase chaperone that in humans is encoded by the gene CLPB, which encodes an adenosine triphosphate-(ATP) dependent chaperone. Skd3 is localized in mitochondria and widely expressed in human tissues. High expression in adult brain and low expression in granulocyte is found. It is a potent protein disaggregase that chaperones the mitochondrial intermembrane space. Mutations in the CLPB gene could cause autosomal recessive metabolic disorder with intellectual disability/developmental delay, congenital neutropenia, progressive brain atrophy, movement disorder, cataracts, and 3-methylglutaconic aciduria. Recently, heterozygous, dominant negative mutations in CLPB have been identified as a cause of severe congenital neutropenia (SCN).
Homeobox protein Hox-A2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HOXA2 gene.
Espin, also known as autosomal recessive deafness type 36 protein or ectoplasmic specialization protein, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ESPN gene. Espin is a microfilament binding protein.
