Disease_relevanceMutations in human Torsin1A (orthologous to elegans, tor-2, tor-1 and ooc-5) are associated with Torsion Dystonia, a movement disorder characterized by involuntary muscle contractions and twisting postures; C. elegans has been used to study Torsin protein function in models of polygutamine (polyQ) aggregation and Parkinson''s disease, these models showed that tor-2 had a protective effect against PolyQ aggregation, as well as protected dopaminergic neurons against chemical or alpha-synuclein -induced degeneration; ooc-5 was not as effective in reducing polyQ aggregates when functioning alone, as compared to functioning together with tor-2, indicating a cumulative effect of torsin protein activity in suppressing misfolded protein formation.Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00006152
