Target Name
FKBP8
Target Full Name
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase FKBP8
Target Function
Constitutively inactive PPiase, which becomes active when bound to calmodulin and calcium. Seems to act as a chaperone for BCL2, targets it to the mitochondria and modulates its phosphorylation state. The BCL2/FKBP8/calmodulin/calcium complex probably interferes with the binding of BCL2 to its targets. The active form of FKBP8 may therefore play a role in the regulation of apoptosis.
Target Subcellular Location
Mitochondrion. Mitochondrion membrane; Single-pass membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side.; [Isoform 1]: Mitochondrion membrane; Single-pass membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side.; [Isoform 3]: Mitochondrion membrane; Single-pass membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side.
Target Tissue Specificity
Widely expressed. Highest levels seen in the brain. Highly abundant in the retina.
Target Synonyms
FKBP8; FKBP38; Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase FKBP8; PPIase FKBP8; 38 kDa FK506-binding protein; 38 kDa FKBP; FKBP-38; hFKBP38; FK506-binding protein 8; FKBP-8; FKBPR38; Rotamase
Target Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the immunophilin protein family, which play a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. Unlike the other members of the family, this encoded protein does not seem to have PPIase/rotamase activity. It may have a role in neurons associated with memory function.
