AAMP, Official Symbol AAMPprovided by HGNC Official Full Name angio associated migratory cell proteinprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:18 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000127837 MIM:603488; AllianceGenome:HGNC:18 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 Summary The gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is associated with angiogenesis, with potential roles in endothelial tube formation and the migration of endothelial cells. It may also regulate smooth muscle cell migration via the RhoA pathway. The encoded protein can bind to heparin and may mediate heparin-sensitive cell adhesion.
