Summary

ANXA1 (annexin A1, HGNC:533) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9q21.13, encoding Annexin A1 (P04083). Plays important roles in the innate immune response as effector of glucocorticoid-mediated responses and regulator of the inflammatory process.

This gene encodes a membrane-localized protein that binds phospholipids. This protein inhibits phospholipase A2 and has anti-inflammatory activity. Loss of function or expression of this gene has been detected in multiple tumors.

Function. Plays important roles in the innate immune response as effector of glucocorticoid-mediated responses and regulator of the inflammatory process. Has anti-inflammatory activity. Plays a role in glucocorticoid-mediated down-regulation of the early phase of the inflammatory response. Contributes to the adaptive immune response by enhancing signaling cascades that are triggered by T-cell activation, regulates differentiation and proliferation of activated T cells. Promotes the differentiation of T cells into Th1 cells and negatively regulates differentiation into Th2 cells. Has no effect on unstimulated T cells. Negatively regulates hormone exocytosis via activation of the formyl peptide receptors and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Has high affinity for Ca(2+) and can bind up to eight Ca(2+) ions. Displays Ca(2+)-dependent binding to phospholipid membranes. Plays a role in the formation of phagocytic cups and phagosomes. Plays a role in phagocytosis by mediating the Ca(2+)-dependent interaction between phagosomes and the actin cytoskeleton. In the context of antitumor immunity, interacts with FPR1 on dendritic cells allowing for tumor-associated antigens uptake and cross-presentation to T cells to mount an antitumor specific T cell response. Functions at least in part by activating the formyl peptide receptors and downstream signaling cascades. Promotes chemotaxis of granulocytes and monocytes via activation of the formyl peptide receptors. Promotes rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton, cell polarization and cell migration. Promotes resolution of inflammation and wound healing. Acts via neutrophil N-formyl peptide receptors to enhance the release of CXCL2.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer; non-covalently linked. Homodimer; linked by transglutamylation. Homodimers linked by transglutamylation are observed in placenta, but not in other tissues. Interacts with S100A11. Heterotetramer, formed by two molecules each of S100A11 and ANXA1. Interacts with DYSF. Interacts with EGFR.

Extracellular space. Extracellular exosome. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Secretory vesicle lumen. Phagocytic cup. Early endosome. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane.

Tissue specificity. Detected in resting neutrophils. Detected in peripheral blood T cells. Detected in extracellular vesicles in blood serum from patients with inflammatory bowel disease, but not in serum from healthy donors. Detected in placenta (at protein level). Detected in liver.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated by protein kinase C, EGFR and TRPM7. Phosphorylated in response to EGF treatment. Sumoylated. Proteolytically cleaved by cathepsin CTSG to release the active N-terminal peptide Ac2-26.

Domain organisation. The full-length protein can bind eight Ca(2+) ions via the annexin repeats. Calcium binding causes a major conformation change that modifies dimer contacts and leads to surface exposure of the N-terminal phosphorylation sites; in the absence of Ca(2+), these sites are buried in the interior of the protein core. The N-terminal region becomes disordered in response to calcium-binding.

Miscellaneous. Was originally identified as calcium and phospholipid binding protein that displays Ca(2+)-dependent binding to phospholipid membranes and can promote membrane aggregation in vitro. Was initially identified as inhibitor of phospholipase A2 activity (in vitro). Inhibition of phospholipase activity is mediated via its phospholipid binding activity that limits the access of phospholipase to its substrates.

Similarity. Belongs to the annexin family.
