SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
basic FUNCTION
  • modulating bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) receptor function, serving as an accessory or coreceptor, and thus facilitates or hinders BMP binding
  • necessary for efficient absorption of vitamin B12

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • functioning in the same pathway as cubilin (CUBN) and forms a complex designated cubam, which is essential for endocytosis/trancytosis of several ligands
  • CUBN functions as a multi-ligand receptor by binding to the transmembrane protein, AMN, and AMN -mediated glycosylation is crucial for cell surface targeting of CUBN in renal and intestinal cells
