Also known as AMYLINDAPIAP
Summary
IAPP (islet amyloid polypeptide, HGNC:5329) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12p12.1, encoding Islet amyloid polypeptide (P10997). Amylin/IAPP is a glucoregulatory peptide hormone that plays an important role in the regulation of energy homeostasis.
This gene encodes a member of the calcitonin family of peptide hormones. This hormone is released from pancreatic beta cells following food intake to regulate blood glucose levels and act as a satiation signal. Human patients with type 1 and advanced type 2 diabetes exhibit reduced levels of the encoded hormone in blood and pancreas. This protein also exhibits a bactericidal, antimicrobial activity.

Genomic neighbors (locus context)
Genes flanking this one on the chromosome (NCBI/Entrez gene neighborhood). Positional context only — some neighbors share regulatory elements (bidirectional promoters, antisense/overlapping transcripts), but chromosomal adjacency is not itself a functional relationship (see Interactions for that).

Function. Amylin/IAPP is a glucoregulatory peptide hormone that plays an important role in the regulation of energy homeostasis. Selectively inhibits insulin-stimulated glucose utilization and glycogen deposition in muscle, while not affecting adipocyte glucose metabolism. IAPP function is mediated by the CALCR-RAMPs (AMYRs) receptor complexes. Amylin can also bind CALCR receptor in the absence of RAMPs, although it is more selective for AMYRs.
Subunit / interactions. Can form homodimers. Interacts with IDE and INS. Interaction with INS inhibits homodimerization and fibril formation.
Subcellular location. Secreted.
Post-translational modifications. Amyloid fibrils are degraded by insulin-degrading enzyme IDE.
Domain organisation. The mature protein is largely unstructured in the absence of a cognate ligand, and has a strong tendency to form fibrillar aggregates. Homodimerization may be the first step of amyloid formation.
Miscellaneous. IAPP is the peptide subunit of amyloid found in pancreatic islets of type 2 diabetic patients and in insulinomas.
Similarity. Belongs to the calcitonin family.
