About AJAP1

Cytogenetic location: 1p36.32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:4,654,609-4,792,534 (from NCBI)

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.
