AJAP1 - adherens junctions associated protein 1 Gene
Also Known as MOT8; SHREW1; SHREW-1
Species: Homo sapiens
About AJAP1
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants) and 195 orthologues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 4.3), ovary (RPKM 2.3) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
Enables beta-catenin binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of cell-matrix adhesion; negative regulation of wound healing; and regulation of polarized epithelial cell differentiation. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; basolateral plasma membrane; and cell-cell contact zone. Is spanning component of plasma membrane.
