Description

APBB1 (Amyloid Beta Precursor Protein Binding Family B Member 1) encodes a member of the Fe65 protein family, which functions as an adaptor protein. It interacts with the intracellular domain of amyloid-beta precursor protein (APP) and plays a role in transcriptional regulation, cell signaling, and neuronal development. APBB1 is implicated in Alzheimer's disease through its involvement in APP processing and beta-amyloid generation.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Alzheimer's disease APBB1 binds to APP intracellular domain (AICD), modulating APP processing and Aβ production; altered expression may contribute to amyloid plaque formation. PMID: 10465789; NCBI GeneRIF
Intellectual disability Rare variants in APBB1 have been associated with neurodevelopmental phenotypes, possibly via disrupted neuronal signaling. ClinVar; PMID: 25439727

Protein Summary

APBB1 (FE65) is a 710-amino acid adaptor protein containing a WW domain and two phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domains. It shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, interacting with APP, transcription factors, and cytoskeletal components. FE65 modulates APP processing, gene transcription, and cell motility, with critical roles in neuronal development and Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis.
