ID:APMAP_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Adipocyte plasma membrane-associated protein; AltName: Full=Protein BSCv; FUNCTION: Exhibits strong arylesterase activity with beta-naphthyl acetate and phenyl acetate. May play a role in adipocyte differentiation. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Liver, glomerular and tubular structures of the kidney, endothelial cells, arterial wall and pancreatic islets of Langerhans (at protein level). Found ubiquitously in adult as well as in embryonic tissues. In adult tissue, the highest expression is found in the liver, placenta and heart. Found on the cell surface of monocytes. In embryonic tissue, the highest expression levels is found in the liver and the kidney. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the strictosidine synthase family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAQ89435.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAB11885.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAB15253.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAB15578.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
