SPG7 matrix AAA peptidase subunit, paraplegin

El SPG7 gene provides instructions for producing a protein called paraplegin, which is a member of the AAA protein family. This protein family plays a role in many cellular activities, including regulation of cell components and proteins. Located within the inner membrane of the energy-producing centers of cells (mitochondria), paraplegin is one of the proteins that form a complex called the m-AAA protease. The m-AAA protease is responsible for assembling ribosomes (cellular structures that process the cell's genetic instructions to create proteins) and removing nonfunctional proteins in the mitochondria.

Aneurisma aórtico abdominal

The aorta is the main blood vessel in the abdomen, running down from your heart. It is normally about the diameter of a garden hose. In older people, particularly those who smoke, part of it can enlarge and balloon up. This is called an abdominal aortic aneurysm (often abbreviated to AAA, pronounced 'triple-A'). This doesn't cause any symptoms and.
