[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ANGI_HUMAN ANGI_HUMAN]] Defects in ANG are the cause of susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 9 (ALS9) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/611895 611895]]. ALS is a degenerative disorder of motor neurons in the cortex, brain stem and spinal cord. ALS is characterized by muscular weakness and atrophy.<ref>PMID:17886298</ref><ref>PMID:15557516</ref><ref>PMID:16501576</ref><ref>PMID:17900154</ref><ref>PMID:18087731</ref><ref>PMID:17703939</ref> | |||
==Function== | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/ANGI_HUMAN ANGI_HUMAN]] May function as a tRNA-specific ribonuclease that abolishes protein synthesis by specifically hydrolyzing cellular tRNAs. Binds to actin on the surface of endothelial cells; once bound, angiogenin is endocytosed and translocated to the nucleus. Angiogenin induces vascularization of normal and malignant tissues. Angiogenic activity is regulated by interaction with RNH1 in vivo.<ref>PMID:1400510</ref><ref>PMID:19354288</ref> | |||
