SCAR15

Chr 3AR

rubicon autophagy regulator

Also known as: KIAA0226, RUBICON, SCAR15

The protein encoded by this gene is a negative regulator of autophagy and endocytic trafficking that controls endosome maturation through its RUN domain (involved in Ras-like GTPase signaling) and DUF4206 domain (containing a diacylglycerol binding-like motif). Mutations cause autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 15, which primarily affects the cerebellum and results in progressive coordination difficulties. This follows autosomal recessive inheritance, requiring mutations in both gene copies for disease manifestation.
