Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** DNASE2 is a lysosomal enzyme that belongs to the deoxyribonuclease family. It is a 2'5'-exonuclease, which means it has the ability to degrade DNA into smaller fragments. DNASE2 is encoded by a single gene (ENSG00000105612) and is expressed in a wide range of cell types, including immune cells, epithelial cells, and neurons. The protein product of this gene is a 24-kDa polypeptide that is ubiquitously distributed in lysosomes. **Pathways and Functions:** DNASE2 is involved in several cellular pathways, including: 1. **Apoptotic DNA fragmentation**: DNASE2 plays a critical role in the degradation of DNA during apoptosis (programmed cell death). It helps to prevent the accumulation of DNA fragments, which can lead to inflammation and tissue damage. 2. **Lysosomal function**: DNASE2 is essential for maintaining the integrity of lysosomes, which are responsible for cellular digestion and immune response. It helps to regulate the pH and ionic composition of lysosomes, ensuring that they function properly. 3. **Regulation of immune response**: DNASE2 is expressed in immune cells, where it contributes to the regulation of immune responses. It helps to prevent the activation of immune cells and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. 4. **Vesicle-mediated transport**: DNASE2 is involved in the regulation of vesicle-mediated transport, which is essential for the movement of molecules within the cell. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of DNASE2 has been implicated in several diseases, including: 1. **Inflammatory disorders**: DNASE2 has been shown to play a critical role in the regulation of inflammatory responses. Its dysregulation has been implicated in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis. 2. **Autoimmune diseases**: DNASE2 has been implicated in autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis. Its dysregulation can lead to the activation of immune cells and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. 3. **Cancer**: DNASE2 has been shown to play a role in cancer development and progression. Its dysregulation can lead to the accumulation of DNA fragments, which can promote cancer cell growth and survival. In conclusion, DNASE2 is a critical gene that plays a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity of lysosomes and regulating immune responses. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several diseases, including inflammatory disorders, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which DNASE2 regulates immune responses and to develop therapeutic strategies for the treatment of diseases associated with its dysregulation.
