SPG6

Chr 15AD

spastic paraplegia 6 (autosomal dominant)

Also known as: FSP3

The protein functions as a magnesium transporter, with the ability to transport other divalent cations including iron, strontium, barium, zinc, and cobalt to a lesser extent. Mutations cause spastic paraplegia 6, a neurodegenerative disorder primarily affecting the corticospinal tracts and resulting in progressive lower limb spasticity and weakness. The condition follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern.
