amphoterin-induced protein 2 (AMIGO-2, alivin-1, differentially expressed in gastric adenocarcinomas, DEGA, AMIGO2, ALI1)
Function:
- required for depolarization-dependent survival of cultured cerebellar granule neurons
- may mediate homophilic & heterophilic cell-cell interaction with AMIGO1 or AMIGO3
- may contribute to signal transduction through its intracellular domain
- binds itself as well as AMIGO1 & AMIGO3
Structure:
- belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, AMIGO family
- contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain
- contains 6 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats
Compartment:
- cell membrane, nucleus
- restricted to somata of cerebellar & hippocampal neurons
Expression:
- expressed in breast, ovary, cervix, uterus > lung, colon, rectum
Pathology:
- differentially expressed in 56% of thyroid cancers 57% of pancreatic cancer 45% of stomach cancer
