Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptiontor-2 encodes a AAA ATPase that, along with TOR-1 and OOC-5, comprise the three C. elegans orthologs of human torsinA; overexpression of TOR-2 in nematodes with polyglutamine repeat-induced protein aggregates indicates that TOR-2 can suppress protein aggregation, suggesting TOR-2 may play a role in regulation of protein folding; in wild-type animals, TOR-2 localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum; in animals containing polyglutamine protein aggregates, TOR-2 localizes to these sites of protein aggregation.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00005722

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable ATP binding activity and ATP hydrolysis activity. Involved in cellular response to misfolded protein; negative regulation of gene expression; and regulation of neuron apoptotic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Expressed in neurons. Used to study Parkinson's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arthrogryposis multiplex congenita-5 and torsion dystonia 1. Is an ortholog of human TOR1A (torsin family 1 member A) and TOR1B (torsin family 1 member B).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkSequence connection from [Caldwell GA]
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
