Other Information

**Key characteristics** - GPM6A is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. - It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including photoreceptor cells, neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. - GPM6A is a key component of the axonal growth cone, where it is involved in the assembly of the axon. - It is also involved in the regulation of calcium channel activity, calcium ion transmembrane transport, dendritic spine, and neural retina development. - GPM6A is a positive regulator of filopodium assembly, presynaptic active zone membrane, and synapse assembly. **Pathways and functions** - GPM6A is involved in the assembly of the axonal growth cone. - It is a key component of the presynaptic active zone membrane, where it is involved in the formation of the synaptic cleft. - It is also involved in the regulation of calcium channel activity and calcium ion transmembrane transport. - GPM6A is a positive regulator of filopodium assembly, where it is involved in the extension of the filopodium. - It is also involved in the regulation of synapse organization and the response to bacteria. **Clinical significance** - Mutations in the GPM6A gene have been linked to a number of neurodegenerative diseases, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. - GPM6A is a promising target for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, as it is involved in the assembly and function of neural structures that are affected in these diseases.
