PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • nine zinc fingers,
  • a proline-rich region,
  • a nuclear bipartite localization signal (NLS) and
  • a helix-turn-helix (homeo box) domain,including a neuroprotective peptide
  • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Adnp
    intraspecies homolog to ADNP2
    Homologene
    FAMILY
    CATEGORY structural protein

    intracellular,nucleus
    basic FUNCTION
  • potential neuroprotective protein
  • may be involved in the stimulatory effect of VIP on certain tumor cells
  • is essential for brain formation, proper brain development and neuronal plasticity
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, antiapoptosis
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    text cell survival,perhaps through modulation of p53
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • VIP regulated brain ADNP expression in a regionally specific manner and both maternal and offspring VIP genotype may influence ADNP expression in the brain
  • imbalance in ADNP/ADNP2 expression in the brain may impact disease progression in schizophrenia
  • cell & other
