The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the X11 protein family. It is a neuronal adaptor protein that interacts with the Alzheimer's disease amyloid precursor protein (APP). It stabilises APP and inhibits production of proteolytic APP fragments including the A beta peptide that is deposited in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. This gene product is believed to be involved in signal transduction processes. It is also regarded as a putative vesicular trafficking protein in the brain that can form a complex with the potential to couple synaptic vesicle exocytosis to neuronal cell adhesion.

Description
Specificity: APBA1 antibody detects endogenous levels of APBA1 protein. Not tested with other proteinsRelevance: APBA1 is part of two multimeric complexes, the first containing Munc18-1 and syntaxin 1 and the second being a brain specific heterotrimeric complex with LIN-10/X11-alpha, LIN-2/CASK, and LIN7. It binds to the cytoplasmic domain of amyloid protein (APP). ABPA1 has a putative function in synaptic vesicle exocytosis by binding to Munc18-1, an essential component of the synaptic vesicle exocytotic machinery. It may modulate processing of the beta amyloid precursor protein (APP) and hence formation of beta APP
