GIGYF2

protein-coding

GRB10 interacting GYF protein 2

Gene summary

This gene contains CAG trinucleotide repeats and encodes a protein containing several stretches of polyglutamine residues. The encoded protein may be involved in the regulation of tyrosine kinase receptor signaling. This gene is located in a chromosomal region that was genetically linked to Parkinson disease type 11, and mutations in this gene were thought to be causative for this disease. However, more recent studies in different populations have been unable to replicate this association. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001103146.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Key component of the 4EHP-GYF2 complex, a multiprotein complex that acts as a repressor of translation initiation (PubMed:22751931). In 4EHP-GYF2 the complex, acts as a factor that bridges EIF4E2 to ZFP36/TTP, linking translation repression with mRNA decay (By similarity). May act cooperatively with GRB10 to regulate tyrosine kinase receptor signaling, including IGF1 and insulin receptors (PubMed:12771153). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6Y7W8, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12771153, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22751931}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Parkinson disease 11 (PARK11) [MIM:607688]: A complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, resting tremor, muscular rigidity and postural instability, as well as by a clinically significant response to treatment with levodopa. The pathology involves the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the presence of Lewy bodies (intraneuronal accumulations of aggregated proteins), in surviving neurons in various areas of the brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18358451, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20060621, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20178831, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26134514}. Note=Disease susceptibility may be associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Its association with Parkinson disease is however unclear. According to a number of studies, variations affecting this gene are not a frequent cause of Parkinson disease, suggesting that GIGYF2 does not play a major role in Parkinson disease etiology (PubMed:19279319, PubMed:19429085, PubMed:19638301, PubMed:19482505, PubMed:20004041, PubMed:19321232, PubMed:20060621). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19279319, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19321232, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19429085, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19482505, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19638301, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20004041, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20060621}.;
