About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for ALS2:
The protein encoded by this gene contains an ATS1/RCC1-like domain, a RhoGEF domain, and a vacuolar protein sorting 9
(VPS9) domain, all of which are guanine-nucleotide exchange factors that activate members of the Ras superfamily of
GTPases. The protein functions as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for the small GTPase RAB5. The protein
localizes with RAB5 on early endosomal compartments, and functions as a modulator for endosomal dynamics. Mutations in
this gene result in several forms of juvenile lateral sclerosis and infantile-onset ascending spastic paralysis.
Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: ALS2_HUMAN, Q96Q42
Function: May act as a GTPase regulator. Controls survival and growth of spinal motoneurons (By similarity)

  • Defects in ALS2 are the cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 2 (ALS2) [MIM:205100]. ALS2 is a familial
  • form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a neurodegenerative disorder affecting upper and lower motor neurons and
    resulting in fatal paralysis. Sensory abnormalities are absent. Death usually occurs within 2 to 5 years. The etiology
    of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is likely to be multifactorial, involving both genetic and environmental factors. The
    disease is inherited in 5-10% of cases leading to familial forms
  • Defects in ALS2 are the cause of juvenile primary lateral sclerosis (JPLS) [MIM:606353]. JPLS is a
  • neurodegenerative disorder which is closely related to but clinically distinct from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. It
    is a progressive paralytic disorder which results from dysfunction of the upper motor neurons of the motor cortex
    while the lower neurons are unaffected
  • Defects in ALS2 are the cause of infantile-onset ascending spastic paralysis (IAHSP) [MIM:607225]. IAHSP is
  • characterized by progressive spasticity and weakness of limbs
