    basic FUNCTION
  • important role in the renal tubular degradation or resorption of APOA1
  • plays an important role in sperm capacitation possibly providing a link between protein phosphorylation and cholesterol efflux
  • secreted NAXE positively regulates cholesterol efflux from endothelial cells and effective cholesterol efflux is critical for proper angiogenesis
  • encodes two different proteins, which we show to be targeted to the mitochondria (mAIBP) and the cytosol (cAIBP)
  • contributes to mitotic entry and bipolar spindle assembly and may partially control localization, phosphorylation, and activation of both AURKA and PLK1 via NIN during mitotic progression
  • catalyzes the epimerization of NAD(P)HX, thereby avoiding the accumulation of toxic metabolites
  • epimerase essential in the cellular metabolite repair for NADHX and NADPHX

    small molecule
    protein
  • interacts with apolipoprotein A1, the component of high-density lipoprotein involved in cholesterol transport
  • acts not only as a substrate but also as a positive regulator of both AURKA and PLK1
  • functions as a negative regulator to block phosphorylation of NIN1 mediated by AURKA and PLK1
