About Ajap1

Summary

Predicted to enable beta-catenin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of cell-matrix adhesion; negative regulation of wound healing; and regulation of polarized epithelial cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell adhesion. Predicted to be located in basolateral plasma membrane and cell surface. Predicted to be active in adherens junction; cell-cell contact zone; and cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Predicted to be spanning component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and spinal cord. Orthologous to human AJAP1 (adherens junctions associated protein 1).
