Full name: torsin 1A interacting protein 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: LAP1; LAP1B; LAP1C; LGMD2Y

Summary: This gene encodes a type 2 integral membrane protein that binds A- and B-type lamins. The encoded protein localizes to the inner nuclear membrane and may be involved in maintaining the attachment of the nuclear membrane to the nuclear lamina during cell division. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]
