{"symbol":"ATXN10","synonyms":["SCA10","E46L","HUMEEP"],"name":"ataxin 10","description":"This gene encodes a protein that may function in neuron survival, neuron differentiation, and neuritogenesis. These roles may be carried out via activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. Expansion of an ATTCT repeat from 9-32 copies to 800-4500 copies in an intronic region of this locus has been associated with spinocerebellar ataxia, type 10. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":25814,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/25814","proteins":[{"symbol":"ATX10_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/ATX10_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"Ataxins (ATXN)","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/Ataxins+%28ATXN%29"}]}
