malfunction | centronuclear myopathy is a genetically heterogeneous disorder associated with general skeletal muscle weakness, type I fiber predominance and atrophy, and abnormally centralized nuclei. Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy is due to mutations in the large GTPase dynamin 2. In addition to centronuclear myopathy, dissimilar DNM2 mutations are associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth peripheral neuropathy (CMTD1B and CMT2M), suggesting a tissue-specific impact of the mutations, possible clinical overlap, phenotypes, overview | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | the large GTPase dynamin 2 is a mechanochemical enzyme regulating cytoskeleton and membrane trafficking in cells. The enzyme acts as a mechanochemical enzyme involved in membrane fission, and is therefore a key player for endosome formation and membrane trafficking from the plasma membrane and the trans-Golgi network | Homo sapiens |
