ABITRAM Gene

Name actin binding transcription modulator
Description Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and actin monomer binding activity. Predicted to be involved in dendrite morphogenesis; regulation of actin filament polymerization; and regulation of filopodium assembly. Predicted to be located in growth cone. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including dendrite; filopodium tip; and lamellipodium. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n ABITRAM functions as a designed, peptide‐based anti–amyloid agent that binds amyloid–β (Aβ) and modulates its aggregation pathway. In experimental models it has been shown to preferentially associate with Aβ aggregates (over monomers), thereby redirecting Aβ away from the formation of tightly packed, fibrillar deposits. Instead, ABITRAM promotes the formation of protease–sensitive, nonfibrillar assemblies that are less prone to neurotoxicity. Its design—guided by computational prediction algorithms that assess amyloidogenicity—confers favorable properties such as enhanced solubility, stability, and resistance to proteolysis. In neuroprotective paradigms, ABITRAM reduces Aβ deposition on neurons and alters aggregate morphology, suggesting its potential to lessen the pathological burden associated with Alzheimer’s disease (see."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Xiaomeng Lu, Claire R Brickson, Regina M Murphy "}, {"type": "b", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "TANGO-Inspired Design of Anti-Amyloid Cyclic Peptides."}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " "}, {"type": "i", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "ACS Chem Neurosci (2016)"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " DOI: "}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "10.1021/acschemneuro.6b00150"}], "href": "https://doi.org/10.1021/acschemneuro.6b00150"}, {"type": "t", "text": " PMID: "}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "27347598"}], "href": "https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27347598"}]}, {"type": "r", "ref": 2, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Kayla M Pate, Brandon J Kim, Eric V Shusta, et al.
