BRAP, Official Symbol BRAPprovided by HGNC Official Full Name BRCA1 associated proteinprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:1099 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000089234 MIM:604986; AllianceGenome:HGNC:1099 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as IMP; BRAP2; RNF52 Summary The protein encoded by this gene was identified by its ability to bind to the nuclear localization signal of BRCA1 and other proteins. It is a cytoplasmic protein which may regulate nuclear targeting by retaining proteins with a nuclear localization signal in the cytoplasm. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] Annotation information Note: BRAP (Gene ID: 8315) and C6orf89 (Gene ID: 221477) share the BRAP symbol/alias in common. BRAP is a widely used alternative name for chromosome 6 open reading frame 89 (C6orf89), which can be confused with the official symbol for BRCA1-associated protein (BRAP).
