Description

MTMR14 (myotubularin related protein 14) encodes a phosphoinositide phosphatase that dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. The protein is involved in autophagy, endosomal trafficking, and skeletal muscle maintenance. Mutations in MTMR14 are associated with centronuclear myopathy and have been implicated in cancer.

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Missense mutations (e.g., p.Pro50Leu, p.Gly130Arg) reduce or abolish phosphatase activity, leading to autophagy defects and muscle pathology.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Not reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not reported.

Pathways

Autophagy - phosphoinositide signaling
Endosomal trafficking

Protein Summary

MTMR14 is a 647-amino acid protein belonging to the myotubularin family. It contains a phosphatase domain that specifically dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. The protein localizes to endosomal membranes and regulates autophagy by controlling phosphoinositide levels. Loss of function leads to impaired autophagic flux and is linked to centronuclear myopathy.
