CAP1-PEN
CAP 1
The protein encoded by this gene is related to the S. cerevisiae CAP protein, which is involved in the cyclic AMP pathway. The human protein is able to interact with other molecules of the same protein, as well as with CAP2 and actin. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]
Forensic Context
A study in human patients and mouse models demonstrated that the CAP1 is a potential diagnostic marker for sepsis, with its expression on monocytes significantly upregulated in sepsis patients and validated in LPS-induced mouse models via flow cytometry [Li et al. DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111938].
