Spartin is a protein that may be involved in microtublue dynamics and endosomal trafficking. The Spartin protein contains a microtubule interacting and trafficking (MIT) molecule domain and is ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels observed in adipose tissue. A frameshift mutation in the Spartin gene (SPG20) causes spastic paraplegia 20, also designated Troyer syndrome, an autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). HSP is an inherited neurological disorder characterized by lower extremity weakness and stiffness due to a length-dependent, retrograde axonopathy of corticospinal motor neurons.
