Regulation of Torsin ATPases by LAP1 and LULL1

Abstract excerpt

TorsinA is a membrane-associated AAA+ (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) ATPase implicated in primary dystonia, an autosomal-dominant movement disorder. We reconstituted TorsinA and its cofactors in vitro and show that TorsinA does not display ATPase activity in isolation; ATP hydrolysis is induced upon association with LAP1 and LULL1, type II transmembrane proteins residing in the nuclear...
