    text
  • co-localized in cell lines and in primary neurons
  • type-2 transmembrane protein
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolism
  • positive regulator of neurite outgrowth
  • can stabilize myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC) and thus bring about an increase in neurite outgrowth
  • important role of FGF21 and CNPY2 in the regulation of LDLRs
  • constitutes a natural inhibitor/blocker of MYLIP activity in different systems
  • is an important regulator of LDLR levels in human hepatocytes

    small molecule
    protein
  • interacts with the ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM)-like myosin regulatory light chain-interacting protein (MIR), and the two proteins are co-localized in cell lines and in primary neurons
  • acts in conjunction with MYLIP, inhibiting its effects on LDLR degradation
  • CNPY2 inhibits MYLIP-mediated AR protein degradation in prostate cancer cells, and decreased the ubiquitination activity of MYLIP by inhibition of interaction between MYLIP and UBE2D1, an E2 ubiquitin ligase
