PubMed PubMed Product Detail Programmed cell death regulates a number of biological processes such as normal organism development, tissue homeostasis, and removal of damaged cells. Disruption of this process has been implicated in a variety of diseases such as cancer. FAIM2 is a recently identified protein that can inhibit the apoptotic signal transduced by the Fas receptor but not from the related tumor necrosis factor-alpha death signal. In this respect, FAIM2 is functionally similar to the anti-apoptotic proteins FAIM, FLIP and Bcl-xL. FAIM2, a seven membrane spanning protein, can bind the Fas receptor but does not regulate Fas expression or inhibit binding of FADD to Fas. FAIM2 is widely distributed, but highly expressed in the hippocampus and other neural tissues. FAIM2 was also identified as the neural membrane protein 35 (NMP35) and its expression is known to be regulated by the Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt/PKB pathway.
Function:
Antiapoptotic protein which protects cells uniquely from Fas-induced apoptosis. Regulates Fas-mediated apoptosis in neurons by interfering with caspase-8 activation. May play a role in cerebellar development by affecting cerebellar size, internal granular layer (IGL) thickness, and Purkinje cell (PC) development.
Subunit:
Interacts with FAS/TNFRSF6 and BAX.
Subcellular Location:
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (By similarity). Membrane raft. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic cell membrane (By similarity).
Tissue Specificity:
Highly expressed in breast carcinoma tissues. Enhanced expression correlates with the grade of the tumor (grade II/grade III) in primary breast tumors (at protein level). Widely expressed. Expressed at high levels in the brain especially in the hippocampus.
Similarity:
Belongs to the BI1 family. LFG subfamily.
