CLONING

By sequencing clones obtained from a size-fractionated brain cDNA library, Nagase et al. (1998) cloned EPM2AIP1, which they designated KIAA0766. The deduced protein contains 607 amino acids, and the 3-prime untranslated region contains MIR sequences. RT-PCR ELISA detected expression in all tissues examined, with highest levels in heart and brain and lowest level in spleen. By yeast 2-hybrid screening using EPM2A (607566) as bait, followed by RT-PCR, Ianzano et al. (2003) cloned EPM2AIP1 from a brain cDNA library. The deduced 607-amino acid protein contains 2 coiled-coil domains, and the 3-prime untranslated region contains 5 polyadenylation signals. EPM2AIP1 shares 83% amino acid identity with its mouse ortholog and 95% nucleotide identity with Macaca fascicularis Epm2Aip1. Northern blot analysis detected transcripts of 8.5, 5.6, 4.8, and 4.2 kb expressed in a tissue-specific manner in all tissues tested. The 5.6-kb transcript predominated in all tissues and was the only transcript detected in brain. The 4.2-kb transcript was detected only in skeletal muscle. EPM2A and EPM2AIP1 colocalized at the endoplasmic reticulum in transfected embryonic kidney cells and COS-7 cells. Cellular fractionation detected EPM2AIP1 in the soluble and light membrane fractions in a manner similar to that of EPM2A.

GENE FUNCTION

Ianzano et al. (2003) confirmed interaction between EPM2A and EPM2AIP1 by coexpression and coimmunoprecipitation in COS-7 cells.

GENE STRUCTURE

Ianzano et al. (2003) determined that EPM2AIP1 is transcribed from a single exon.

MAPPING

By radiation hybrid analysis, Nagase et al. (1998) mapped the EMP2AIP1 gene to chromosome 3. By genomic sequence analysis, Ianzano et al. (2003) mapped the EPM2AIP1 gene to chromosome 3p22.1. They mapped the mouse Epm2aip1 gene to chromosome 9 in a region that shows homology of synteny to human chromosome 3p22.1. ... More on the omim web site
