Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase-like protein 6 Ab
Active
Description
Dipeptidyl aminopeptidase-like protein 6 (DPPX) is a regulatory subunit of neuronal Kv4.2 potassium channel and is encoded by the DPPX gene. PMID: 25320100 DPPX is a type II membrane protein that binds to specific voltage-gated potassium channels and changes their biophysical characteristics. Alterations in the DPPX gene are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation. [NCBI Gene ID: 1804] IgG to DPPX is a biomarker for a frequently multifocal neurological disorder that develops insidiously, can be severe, responds to immunotherapy and is likely to relapse. Clinical symptoms associated with postive DPPX IgG include encephalopathy (with cortical, cerebellar or brainstem manifestations), myelopathy and autonomic dysfunction.
