The majority of malignancies showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining often combined with nuclear positivity. Several malignant melanomas along with a few lung and breast cancers were strongly stained. Most malignant lymphomas were negative.
Amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein-binding, family A, member 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the X11 protein family. It is a neuronal adapter protein that interacts with the Alzheimer's disease amyloid precursor protein (APP). It stabilizes 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. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
