AGTPBP1
Description
The AGTPBP1 gene encodes a protein that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including protein synthesis, cell growth, and stress response. This protein interacts with other proteins and molecules within the cell, contributing to a complex network of interactions that maintain cellular homeostasis. AGTPBP1‘s involvement in these fundamental functions makes it a potential target for understanding and treating diseases related to cellular dysfunction.
Associated Diseases
- Cancer: Mutations in AGTPBP1 have been linked to increased cancer risk and progression.
- Neurological Disorders: Dysregulation of AGTPBP1 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer‘s disease and Parkinson‘s disease.
- Cardiovascular Disease: AGTPBP1 may play a role in heart disease development and progression.
- Infectious Diseases: The protein‘s involvement in stress response suggests a potential link to susceptibility to infections.
