Disease relevance of Snap91

  • These monoclonal antibodies also specifically recognize the cloned F1-20 protein expressed in Escherichia coli [1].
  • The clathrin assembly protein lymphoid myeloid leukemia (CALM) gene, encodes a homologoue of the neuronal clathrin assembly protein AP180 [2].

High impact information on Snap91

 

Biological context of Snap91

  • Clathrin-mediated endocytosis was selectively blocked with tyrphostin A23, which disrupts the interaction between tyrosine motifs in the cytosolic domains of integral membrane proteins and the adaptor complex AP2, and a dominant-negative mutant of the adaptor protein AP180 [6].
  • We found two distinct isoforms of F1-20 cDNA that differed by the presence of 15 additional nucleotides, which does not interrupt the open reading frame [7].
  • It is likely that the two F1-20 mRNA isoforms are derived from RNA splicing events utilizing alternative 3' acceptor sites [7].
  • Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence for the complete open reading frame revealed that the predominant F1-20 mRNA encodes an 896 amino acid polypeptide with a molecular weight of 91,319 Da [7].
 

Anatomical context of Snap91

  • Another monoclonal antibody, F1-20, stains different brain gray matter regions to varying degrees but shows a complete and exclusive exclusion of staining from the globus pallidus, entopeduncular nucleus and substantia nigra pars reticulata [8].
  • These results indicate that a protein with homology to the neuron-specific coated vesicle protein AP180, is present in muscle cells associated with vesicles showing significant concentration around postsynaptic nuclei present in close proximity to AChR clusters [9].
 

Associations of Snap91 with chemical compounds

 

Other interactions of Snap91

  • This indicates that the F1-20 protein is a substrate for neuronal calpain [7].
  • We observed that treatment of a synaptosomal lysate with alkaline phosphatase led to an increase in the electrophoretic mobility of the F1-20 protein, as well as to an increase in the sharpness of the electrophoretic band [7].
  • In this study, we show that polarized epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells express two AP180-related proteins: the ubiquitously expressed 62-kDa clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia (CALM, AP180-2) protein and a novel high-molecular-weight homolog that we have named AP180-3 [11].
