[5] This gene encodes a protein localized in mitochondria and closely related to paraplegin.

The paraplegin gene is responsible for an autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia.

This gene is a candidate gene for other hereditary spastic paraplegias or neurodegenerative disorders [5] as well as spastic ataxia-neuropathy syndrome.
