Rabbit Anti-Mint3/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
The Beta-Amyloid precursor protein (Beta-APP) is a major constituent of the amyloid deposits in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. The Beta-Amyloid precursor is known to interact with several proteins, including X11 and the G heterotrimetric protein APP-BP1. The neuronal, transmembrane protein X11 is known to bind to the Beta-Amyloid precursor protein via a phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain, reducing the secretion of cellular Beta-APP and slowing Beta-APP processing pathways. X11 binds specifically to the YENPTY motif, which is involved in the internalization of Beta-APP. Multiple splice varitents of X11 have been identified, including X11 Alpha (also designated Mint 1), X11 Beta (Mint 2) and X11 (Mint 3).
Function:
May modulate processing of the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) and hence formation of beta-APP. May enhance the activity of HIF1A in macrophages by inhibiting the activity of HIF1AN (By similarity).
Subunit:
Binds to the cytoplasmic domain of amyloid protein (APP). Interacts with HIF1AN (via N-terminus) (By similarity).
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm; perinuclear region.
Tissue Specificity:
Ubiquitous.
Similarity:
Contains 2 PDZ (DHR) domains.
Contains 1 PID domain.
