Function
(Microbial infection) Required early in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection to initiate RNA replication, and later in the infection to support infectious virus production.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane (Single-pass type II membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in heart, placenta, liver, kidney, pancreas, prostate, testis, ovary and small intestine
Disease Association: Spastic paraplegia 62, autosomal recessive (SPG62) : A form of spastic paraplegia, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a slow, gradual, progressive weakness and spasticity of the lower limbs. Rate of progression and the severity of symptoms are quite variable. Initial symptoms may include difficulty with balance, weakness and stiffness in the legs, muscle spasms, and dragging the toes when walking. In some forms of the disorder, bladder symptoms (such as incontinence) may appear, or the weakness and stiffness may spread to other parts of the body.
