| Function |
May modulate calcium-mediated postsynaptic signals. Complex formation with APBA2 and APP, stabilizes APP metabolism and enhances APBA2-mediated suppression of beta-APP40 secretion, due to the retardation of intracellular APP maturation. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Golgi apparatus membrane. Note=Most prominent in the postsynaptic specializations of asymmetric (type I) synapses with both axodendritic and axospinous localization. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
According to PubMed:12498782, expressed predominantly in the brain and in kidney. Low levels in heart, skeletal muscle, liver, placenta, pancreas and lung. According to PubMed:12972431, predominant expression in brain, and only marginal in kidney. In brain, present throughout all cortical layers, highest levels in GABAergic neurons (based on morphology and distribution pattern). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12498782, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12972431}.
