Amyloid protein-binding protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the APPBP2 gene.[1][2]

The protein encoded by this gene interacts with microtubules and is functionally associated with beta-amyloid precursor protein transport and/or processing. The beta-amyloid precursor protein is a cell surface protein with signal-transducing properties, and it is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. This gene has been found to be highly expressed in breast cancer. Multiple polyadenylation sites have been found for this gene.[2]

Interactions

APPBP2 has been shown to interact with Amyloid precursor protein.[1]{
