MGI Phenotype FUNCTION: [Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] This gene encodes a regulator of CDK5 (cyclin-dependent kinase 5) activity. The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the centrosome and Golgi complex, interacts with CDK5R1 and pericentrin (PCNT), plays a role in centriole engagement and microtubule nucleation, and has been linked to primary microcephaly and Alzheimer's disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutant phenotype varies by strain background. Severely affected mutants exhibit small size, severe anemia, and neonatal death. Mildly affected mutants are viable with mild macrocytic anemia, reduced fertility and radiation senstitivity. [provided by MGI curators]

Nature of Mutation

DNA sequencing using the SOLiD technique identified a T to A transversion at position 2320 of the Cdk5rap2 transcript in exon 20 of 37 exons using Genbank record NM_145990.3.  Multiple transcripts of the Cdk5rap2 gene are displayed on Ensembl and Vega. The mutated nucleotide causes a valine to glutamic acid substitution at amino acid 1344 of the encoded protein. The mutation has been confirmed by DNA sequencing using the Sanger method (Figure 1).

Protein Function and Prediction

The Cdk5rap2 gene encodes an 1822 amino acid regulator of CDK5 activity via its interaction with CDK5R1, and is phosphorylated by CDK5. The protein is involved in regulation of mitotic spindle orientation and brain development, and interacts with a number of proteins involved in mitotic spindle orientation (Uniprot Q8K389). In mice, the homozygous mutant phenotype varies by strain background. Severely affected mutants exhibit small size, severe anemia, and neonatal death. Mildly affected mutants are viable with mild macrocytic anemia, reduced fertility and radiation senstitivity. In humans, mutations cause autosomal recessive microcephaly-3 (OMIM 604804).
