amyloid beta precursor protein binding family A member 3(APBA3) Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the X11 protein family. It is an adapter protein that interacts with the Alzheimers disease amyloid precursor protein. This gene product is believed to be involved in signal transduction processes. This gene is a candidate gene for Alzheimers disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],domain:Composed of an N-terminal domain, a middle phosphotyrosine-binding domain (PID/PTB) that mediates binding with the cytoplasmic domain of the beta-amyloid precursor protein, and two C-terminal PDZ domains thought to attach proteins to the plasma membrane.,function:May modulate processing of the beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) and hence formation of beta-APP.,similarity:Contains 1 PDZ (DHR) domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PID domain.,similarity:Contains 2 PDZ (DHR) domains.,subunit:Binds to the cytoplasmic domain of amyloid protein (APP) in vivo.,tissue specificity:Expressed in all the tissues examined with lower levels in brain and testis.,
