Disease relevance of Sept5

 

High impact information on Sept5

  • Transfection of HIT-T15 cells with wild-type CDCrel-1 inhibited secretion, whereas GTPase dominant-negative mutants enhanced secretion [3].
  • These results show that CDCrel-1 overexpression exerts dopamine-dependent neurotoxicity and suggest that inhibition of dopamine secretion by CDCrel-1 may contribute to the development of AR-JP [1].
  • Here we show that recombinant adeno-associated virus-mediated CDCrel-1 gene transfer to the substantia nigra of rats results in a rapid onset (6-10 days) of nigral and striatal CDCrel-1 expression that is followed by a progressive loss of nigral dopaminergic neurons and a decline of the striatal dopamine levels [1].
  • Furthermore, CDCrel-1 inhibits the release of dopamine from stably-transfected PC12 cells, and pharmacological inhibition of tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine synthesis in rats prevents CDCrel-1-induced nigral neurodegeneration [1].
  • Altered levels of the septin CDCrel-1 in isolation-reared rats may contribute to changes in neuronal connectivity and neurotransmission, and suggest a potential role for CDCrel-1 in schizophrenia related to chromosome 22q11 deletion syndrome [4].
 

Biological context of Sept5

  • Furthermore, Sept5 appears to inhibit exocytosis, possibly by regulating vesicle targeting and/or fusion events [5].
  • Alternative polyadenylation site selections resulted in various transcripts for CDCrel-1A including the fusion forms with another gene, platelet glycoprotein Ibbeta (GPIbbeta) [6].
  • CDCrel-1 modulates dopamine neurotransmission, binds to the SNARE protein syntaxin and maps onto a region of chromosome 22q11 deleted in velo-cardio-facial and DiGeorge syndromes, which are associated with increased prevalence of schizophrenia [4].
 

Anatomical context of Sept5

  • We have previously shown that Sept5 is predominantly expressed in the brain, where it associates with vesicles and membranes through its interaction with the SNARE domain of syntaxin 1A [5].
  • Reciprocal expression of infant- and adult-preferring transcripts of CDCrel-1 septin gene in the rat neocortex [6].
  • CDCrel-1 immunoreactivity was significantly lower in the striatum and marginally higher in the hippocampus of isolation-reared compared with socially reared animals [4].
 

Associations of Sept5 with chemical compounds

  • These results suggest that Parkin may be involved in the haloperidol-induced synaptic plasticity, since Parkin regulates the turnover of the synaptic protein, CDCrel-1 [7].
 

Other interactions of Sept5

  • Seven proteins showed significant changes in hydrocephalic H-Tx rats compared with Sprague-Dawley and normal H-Tx rats, including HMG-1, CDCrel-1A, mitochondrial ATP synthase, ERp29, NADP+-ICDH, CCT beta and gamma [2].
