SPG20

Chr 13AR

spartin

Also known as: SPG20, TAHCCP1

The protein encoded by this gene is a lipophagy receptor that regulates lipid droplet turnover in motor neurons and participates in endosomal trafficking and cytokinesis. Mutations cause Troyer syndrome, an autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia characterized by progressive spasticity primarily affecting the lower limbs. This condition typically presents in childhood and represents a form of hereditary spastic paraplegia with additional neurological features.
