SIMILARITY | Belongs to the FAM126 family. |
DISEASE | Defects in FAM126A are the cause of leukodystrophy hypomyelinating type 5 (HLD5) [MIM:610532]. This disorder is characterized by congenital cataract, progressive neurologic impairment, and diffuse myelin deficiency. Affected individuals experience progressive pyramidal and cerebellar dysfunction, muscle weakness and wasting prevailingly in the lower limbs. Mental deficiency ranges from mild to moderate. |

Background Descriptions | Hyccin is a 521 amino acid cytoplasmic protein that is widely expressed with highest levels found in heart, brain, placenta, spleen and testis. Belonging to the FAM126 family, hyccin may play a role in the ∫-catenin/Lef signaling pathway. Hyccin is likely involved in the process of myelination of the central and peripheral nervous system. Defects in the gene encoding hyccin are the cause of leukodystrophy hypomyelinating type 5 (HLD5), which is characterized by congenital cataract, progressive neurologic impairment and diffuse myelin deficiency. Individuals affected by HLD5 experience progressive pyramidal and cerebellar dysfunction along with muscle weakness in the lower limbs. Hyccin exists as two alternatively spliced isoforms and is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 7. |

Name | HYCC1 (HGNC:24587) |
---|---|
Function | Component of a complex required to localize phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI4K) to the plasma membrane (PubMed:26571211). The complex acts as a regulator of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) synthesis (PubMed:26571211). HYCC1 plays a key role in oligodendrocytes formation, a cell type with expanded plasma membrane that requires generation of PtdIns(4)P (PubMed:26571211). Its role in oligodendrocytes formation probably explains its importance in myelination of the central and peripheral nervous system (PubMed:16951682, PubMed:26571211). May also have a role in the beta- catenin/Lef signaling pathway (Probable). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytosol. Cell membrane Note=Localizes to the cytosol and is recruited to the plasma membrane following interaction with other components of the phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase (PI4K) complex. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Highest levels in heart, brain, placenta, spleen and testis. |
