About App

Primary_assembly 11: 24,019,778-24,236,561 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026984.1

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 280 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 50 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 196.2), Lung (RPKM 1647.7) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables growth factor receptor binding activity and peptidase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to metal ion; defense response to Other organism; and positive regulation of MAPK cascade. Located in several cellular components, including astrocyte projection; axon; and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Used to study Alzheimer's disease. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease; diabetic encephalopathy; hypertension; iron deficiency anemia; and middle cerebral artery infarction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in APP-related cerebral amyloid angiopathy; Alzheimer's disease; Alzheimer's disease 1; cognitive disorder; and visual epilepsy. Orthologous to human APP (amyloid beta precursor protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
