The BASP1 gene (BASP1 stands for: Brain Abundant Membrane Attached Signal Protein 1) is a protein coding gene located on chromosome 5p15.1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein.

General informationThis section has been translated automatically.
The BASP1 gene encodes a membrane-bound protein with multiple transient phosphorylation sites and PEST motifs. Conservation of proteins with PEST sequences between different species supports their functional significance. PEST sequences are typically found in proteins with high turnover rates. The immunological properties of this protein are species-specific. This protein is also subject to N-terminal myristoylation. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]
Diseases associated with BASP1 include Wilms tumor.
