Biochem/physiol Actions

RTN2 (reticulon 2) gene also referred to as NSP2 or NSPL1 is a member of reticulon encoding gene family. It plays a pivotal role in organizing endoplasmic reticulum and distal motor axons. RTN2B, isoform of RTN2 regulates the trafficking as well as facilitates as a positive modulator for delivering the EAAC1 (excitatory amino acid carrier 1) from ER to the cell surface. Mutation in RTN2 gene leads to axon-degenerative disorder hereditary spastic paraplegia type 12.

Several causative genes for hereditary spastic paraplegia encode proteins with intramembrane hairpin loops that contribute to the curvature of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but the relevance of this function to axonal degeneration is not understood. One of these genes is
