About ENSA

Cytogenetic location: 1q21.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:150,621,246-150,629,612 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 40.0), esophagus (RPKM 33.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a highly conserved cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein (ARPP) family. This protein was identified as an endogenous ligand for the sulfonylurea receptor, ABCC8/SUR1. ABCC8 is the regulatory subunit of the ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel, which is located on the plasma membrane of pancreatic beta cells and plays a key role in the control of Insulin release from pancreatic beta cells. This protein is thought to be an endogenous regulator of KATP channels. In vitro studies have demonstrated that this protein modulates Insulin secretion through the interaction with KATP channel, and this gene has been proposed as a candidate gene for type 2 diabetes. At least eight alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
