Integral membrane protein 2C

UniProt data

UniProt name: ITM2C_HUMAN (Q9NQX7)

Gene name: ITM2C; Synonyms=BRI3; ORFNames=hucep-14, NPD018, PSEC0047

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).

Function: Negative regulator of beta amyloid peptide production. May inhibit the processing of APP by blocking its access to alpha- and beta-secretase. Binding to the beta-secretase-cleaved APP C- terminal fragment is negligible, suggesting that ITM2C is a poor gamma-secretase cleavage inhibitor. May play a role in TNF-induced cell death and neuronal differentiation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18452648, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19366692}.

Subcellular location: Lysosome membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19114711}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19114711}.

Transmembrane domains:

  1. 55-75, 21 AA, Helical; Signal-anchor for type II membrane protein. {ECO:0000255}.
