Basic information

Full name
amyloid beta precursor like protein 2
Ensembl
ENSG00000084234.17
Summary
This gene encodes amyloid precursor- like protein 2 (APLP2), which is a member of the APP (amyloid precursor protein) family including APP, APLP1 and APLP2. This protein is ubiquitously expressed. It contains heparin-, copper- and zinc- binding domains at the N-terminus, BPTI/Kunitz inhibitor and E2 domains in the middle region, and transmembrane and intracellular domains at the C-terminus. This protein interacts with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules. The synergy of this protein and the APP is required to mediate neuromuscular transmission, spatial learning and synaptic plasticity. This protein has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Associations of the protein abundance of APLP2 with phenotypes and mutations

Signed p-values
Phenotype Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values could be from test for Spearman correlation, Wilcoxon rank sum test, Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test or Cox regression depending on the data type. P-values for individual cohorts can be clicked to show the data plots. The matrix icons in each row can be clicked to show a heatmap summary of associations across all cohorts and omics. The rows in the table can be expanded to show results from other omics.

Cis-association

Associations between omics data of APLP2

* The numbers are Spearman correlation coefficients and can be clicked to show the scatter plots. The color and size of the circles correlate with the coefficients.

Trans-association

Associations of the protein abundance of APLP2 and the protein abundance of other genes

Signed p-values
Gene Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values are from test for Spearman correlation. P-values for individual cohorts can be clicked to show the data plots. The matrix icons in each row can be clicked to show a heatmap summary of associations across all cohorts and omics. The rows in the table can be expanded to show results from other omics.
