The cyclic nucleotide binding sites of Swiss-Cheese, the <i>Drosophila</i> orthologue of human PNPLA6, are required for its catalytic function
2025-12-13
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in Swiss-cheese (SWS) or its vertebrate ortholog PNLPA6, also called Neuropathy Target Esterase (NTE), cause progressive neuronal degeneration in Drosophila and mice and several complex syndromes in humans. These include mental retardation, spastic paraplegia, ataxia and blindness and several other symptoms. SWS and PNPLA6 are widely expressed in neurons and in several glial cell types in Drosophila an...
