NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene has been shown to be involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, and in the crosstalk between the adiponectin signalling and insulin signalling pathways. The encoded protein binds many other proteins, including RAB5A, DCC, AKT2, PIK3CA, adiponectin receptors, and proteins of the NuRD/MeCP1 complex. This protein is found associated with endosomal membranes, but can be released by EGF and translocated to the nucleus. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
APPL: an effector protein of the small GTPase Rab5, a key regulator of endocytosis. Required for the regulation of cell proliferation in response to extracellular signals from an early endosomal compartment. Links Rab5 to nuclear signal transduction. Contains a PH domain and an N-terminal PID domain. Its interaction with RAB5A/Rab5 is essential for its recruitment to endosomal membranes as well as its role in cell proliferation. Binds DCC and the catalytic domain of the inactive form of AKT2 through its PID domain. Binds PIK3CA and subunits of the NuRD/MeCP1 complex. Phosphorylated upon DNA damage.

Product Notes
The APPL1 appl1 (Catalog #
AAA6406906) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The APPL1 (DCC-interacting protein 13-alpha, APPL, DIP13alpha) (APC) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's APPL1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB). IHC: 1:50-1:200 WB: 1:500-1:2000 Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the APPL1 appl1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"APPL1, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an
additional dry ice fee may also be
required.
