The 3 ZU5 Repeats and their disease

S.NOUniprot ID Protein Name Sequence LengthZU5 Repeats regionDisease
1 P16157 Ankyrin-1 1881"DISEASE: Spherocytosis 1 (SPH1) [MIM:182900]: A form of spherocytosis, a hematologic disorder leading to chronic hemolytic anemia and characterized by numerous abnormally shaped erythrocytes which are generally spheroidal.
SPH1 is characterized by severe hemolytic anemia.
Inheritance can be autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive.
Patients with homozygous mutations have a more severe disorder.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry".
2 Q01484 Ankyrin-2 3957"DISEASE: Long QT syndrome 4 (LQT4) [MIM:600919]: A heart disorder characterized by a prolonged QT interval on the ECG and polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias.
They cause syncope and sudden death in response to exercise or emotional stress, and can present with a sentinel event of sudden cardiac death in infancy.
Long QT syndrome type 4 shows many atypical features compared to classical long QT syndromes, including pronounced sinus bradycardia, polyphasic T waves and atrial fibrillation.
Cardiac repolarization defects may be not as severe as in classical LQT syndromes and prolonged QT interval on EKG is not a consistent feature.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry".
3 Q12955 Ankyrin-3 4377"DISEASE: Note=Genetic variations in ANK3 may be associated with autism spectrum disorders susceptibility.
; DISEASE: Mental retardation, autosomal recessive 37 (MRT37) [MIM:615493]: A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period.
MRT37 patients manifest delayed global development with speech delay, hypotonia, spasticity, and a sleep disorder.
Severe behavioral abnormalities include aggression, hyperactivity, and grinding of the teeth.
Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
A homozygous deletion in ANK3 predicted to result in frameshift and premature truncation, has been shown to be the cause of moderate intellectual disability, an ADHD-like phenotype and behavioral problems in a consanguineous family (PubMed:23390136)".
