PATL2 Gene

Name protein associated with topoisomerase II homolog 2 (yeast)
Description Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in P-body assembly; deadenylation-dependent decapping of nuclear-transcribed mRNA; and negative regulation of translation. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of cytoplasmic mRNA processing body assembly. Located in cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nPATL2 encodes a highly conserved, oocyte‐specific RNA-binding protein that functions as a translational repressor. Multiple studies have demonstrated that PATL2 is essential for proper oocyte maturation. Genetic screens in affected families and cohorts have identified both homozygous and compound heterozygous PATL2 mutations associated with oocyte maturation arrest at various stages (germinal vesicle, metaphase I, or metaphase II). Complementary studies using Patl2 knockout mouse models further revealed that loss of PATL2 leads to morphological defects in oocytes and early embryonic developmental abnormalities, emphasizing its critical role in female fertility. These findings collectively reinforce the concept that PATL2 is indispensable for mediating mRNA regulation during oocyte maturation and that its deficiency contributes significantly to primary infertility."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "7"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn addition to its established role in oocytes, PATL2 is expressed in ovarian granulosa cells where it is involved in promoting cell proliferation. Investigations in human granulosa cells, including those derived from patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), have shown that reduced PATL2 expression is associated with decreased levels of adrenomedullin 2 (ADM2). This reduction correlates with impaired proliferation of granulosa cells and may contribute to abnormal follicular development. Thus, beyond regulating maturation in oocytes, PATL2 appears to help sustain a supportive follicular environment, highlighting its broader impact on ovarian function."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "8"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Sateesh Maddirevula, Serdar Coskun, Saad Alhassan, et al.
