PEBP1

Name: phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein 1
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: HCNP, HCNPpp, HEL-210, HEL-S-34, HEL-S-96, PBP, PEBP, PEBP-1, RKIP

This gene encodes a member of the phosphatidylethanolamine-binding family of proteins and has been shown to modulate multiple signaling pathways, including the MAP kinase (MAPK), NF-kappa B, and glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) signaling pathways. The encoded protein can be further processed to form a smaller cleavage product, hippocampal cholinergic neurostimulating peptide (HCNP), which may be involved in neural development. This gene has been implicated in numerous human cancers and may act as a metastasis suppressor gene. Multiple pseudogenes of this gene have been identified in the genome.
