Gene information for NECAB3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID63941
Official gene symbolNECAB3
Full nameN-terminal EF-hand calcium binding protein 3
Aliases,APBA2BP,EFCBP3,NIP1,STIP3,SYTIP2,XB51,dJ63M2.4,dJ63M2.5,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene interacts with the amino-terminal domain of the neuron-specific X11-like protein (X11L), inhibits the association of X11L with amyloid precursor protein through a non-competitive mechanism, and abolishes the suppression of beta-amyloid production by X11L. This protein, together with X11L, may play an important role in the regulatory system of amyloid precursor protein metabolism and beta-amyloid generation. The protein is phosphorylated by NIMA-related expressed kinase 2, and localizes to the Golgi apparatus. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
