SPEG Gene (Protein Coding)

Striated Muscle Enriched Protein Kinase

GC02P219434
GIFtS:
42
This gene encodes a protein with similarity to members of the myosin light chain kinase family. This protein family is required for myocyte cytoskeletal development. Along with the desmin gene, expression of this gene may be controlled by the desmin locus control region. Mutations in this gene are associated with centronuclear myopathy 5.

mRNA Expression by UniProt/SwissProt for SPEG Gene:

Q15772-SPEG_HUMAN
Tissue specificity: Isoform 1 is preferentially expressed in striated muscle. Non-kinase form such as isoform 3 is predominantly expressed in the aorta. Isoform 3 appears to be expressed only in highly differentiated ASMC in normal vessel walls and down-regulated in dedifferentiated ASMC in vivo. In response to vascular injuries ASMC dedifferentiate and change from a quiescent and contractile phenotype to a proliferative and synthetic phenotype. This proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells is one of the most prominent features of atherosclerosis.

SPEG_HUMAN
  • Myopathy, centronuclear, 5 (CNM5) [MIM:615959]: A form of centronuclear myopathy, a congenital muscle disorder characterized by progressive muscular weakness and wasting involving mainly limb girdle, trunk, and neck muscles. It may also affect distal muscles. Weakness may be present during childhood or adolescence or may not become evident until the third decade of life. Ptosis is a frequent clinical feature. The most prominent histopathologic features include high frequency of centrally located nuclei in muscle fibers not secondary to regeneration, radial arrangement of sarcoplasmic strands around the central nuclei, and predominance and hypotrophy of type 1 fibers. CNM5 features include severe neonatal hypotonia with respiratory insufficiency, difficulty feeding, and delayed motor development. Some patients die in infancy, and some develop dilated cardiomyopathy. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:25087613}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
