Gene: PRNP (prion protein) Homo sapiens
Analyze
Symbol: PRNP
Name: prion protein
Description: Exhibits several functions, including amyloid-beta binding activity; cuprous ion binding activity; and type 5 metabotropic glutamate receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including calcium-mediated signaling using intracellular calcium source; cellular response to amyloid-beta; and protein destabilization. Localizes to several cellular components, including membrane raft; mitochondrial outer membrane; and nuclear membrane. Colocalizes with dendrite. Implicated in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease; Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker syndrome; Huntington's disease-like 1; fatal familial insomnia; and kuru.
Type: protein-coding
RefSeq Status: REVIEWED
Also known as: alternative prion protein; AltPrP; ASCR; CD230; CD230 antigen; CJD; GSS; KURU; major prion protein; MGC26679; p27-30; prion; prion protein (p27-30) (Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Gerstmann-Strausler-Scheinker syndrome, fatal familial insomnia); prion protein PrP; prion-related protein; PRIP; PrP; PrP27-30; PrP33-35C; PrPc
