Plays a regulatory role in the processing of the amyloid-beta A4 precursor protein (APP) and acts as an inhibitor of the amyloid-beta peptide aggregation and fibrils deposition. Plays a role in the induction of neurite outgrowth. Functions as a protease inhibitor by blocking access of secretases to APP cleavage sites.
Mature BRI2 (mBRI2) functions as a modulator of the amyloid-beta A4 precursor protein (APP) processing leading to a strong reduction in the secretion of secretase-processed amyloid-beta protein 40 and amyloid-beta protein 42.
Bri23 peptide prevents aggregation of APP amyloid-beta protein 42 into toxic oligomers.

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy, ITM2B-related 1 (CAA-ITM2B1)3 Publications
The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. A single base substitution at the stop codon of ITM2B generates a 277-residue precursor that is cleaved at the normal furin processing site to generate the ABri amyloidogenic peptide (PubMed:10391242). ABri accumulates in the brain and produces amyloid fibrils responsible for neuronal dysfunction and dementia. ABri peptide variant forms fibrils in vitro (PubMed:10526337).2 Publications
Disease descriptionA disorder characterized by amyloid deposition in the walls of cerebral blood vessels and neurodegeneration in the central nervous system. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy, non-neuritic and perivascular plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are the predominant pathological lesions. Clinical features include progressive mental deterioration, spasticity and muscular rigidity.

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy, ITM2B-related 2 (CAA-ITM2B2)3 Publications
The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. A decamer duplication in the 3' region of ITM2B results in the production of the ADan amyloidogenic peptide (PubMed:10781099). ADan is generated by cleavage of the mutated precursor at the normal furin processing site. ADan accumulates in the brain and produces amyloid fibrils responsible for neuronal dysfunction and dementia.1 Publication
Disease descriptionA disorder characterized by amyloid deposition in the walls of the blood vessels of the cerebrum, choroid plexus, cerebellum, spinal cord and retina. Plaques and neurofibrillary tangles are observed in the hippocampus. Clinical features include progressive ataxia, dementia, cataracts and deafness.

The ectodomain C-terminal part of the imBRI2 is processed by furin producing a secreted Bri23 peptide and a mature BRI2, membrane form (mBRI2). The remaining part of the ectodomain of mBRI2 containing the BRICHOS domain is cleaved by ADAM10 and is secreted (BRI2C, soluble form). The membrane-bound N-terminal fragment (BRI2C, membrane form) is further proteolytically processed by SPPL2A and SPPL2B through regulated intramembrane proteolysis producing a secreted C-peptide and a BRI2 intracellular domain (BRI2 ICD) released in the cytosol. Shedding by ADAM10 facilitates intramembrane cleavage but is not absolutely required for BRI2 ICD generation.
Glycosylation at Asn-170 is important for cell surface localization, but doesn't affect furin- and ADAM10-induced proteolytic processing.1 Publication

<p>The checksum is a form of redundancy check that is calculated from the sequence. It is useful for tracking sequence updates.</p> <p>It should be noted that while, in theory, two different sequences could have the same checksum value, the likelihood that this would happen is extremely low.</p> <p>However UniProtKB may contain entries with identical sequences in case of multiple genes (paralogs).</p> <p>The checksum is computed as the sequence 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check value (CRC64) using the generator polynomial: x<sup>64</sup> + x<sup>4</sup> + x<sup>3</sup> + x + 1. The algorithm is described in the ISO 3309 standard. </p> <p class="publication">Press W.H., Flannery B.P., Teukolsky S.A. and Vetterling W.T.<br /> <strong>Cyclic redundancy and other checksums</strong><br /> <a href="http://www.nrbook.com/b/bookcpdf.php">Numerical recipes in C 2nd ed., pp896-902, Cambridge University Press (1993)</a>)</p> Checksum:i3A7D8CA259F1F627
