Function
Regulator of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Acts by specifically binding phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2), translocating to the cell membrane and interacting with key regulators of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway, such as components of the beta-catenin destruction complex. Acts both as a positive and negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway, depending on the context: acts as a positive regulator by promoting LRP6 phosphorylation. Also acts as a negative regulator by acting as a scaffold protein for the beta-catenin destruction complex and promoting stabilization of Axin at the cell membrane. Promotes CTNNB1 ubiquitination and degradation. Involved in kidney development.
Protein name
APC membrane recruitment protein 1 (Amer1) (Protein FAM123B) (Wilms tumor gene on the X chromosome protein)

Cellular localization
Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Nucleus. Shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm. Detected in nuclear paraspeckles that are found close to splicing speckles. Translocates to the cell membrane following binding to PtdIns(4,5)P2.
Tissue expression
Detected in fetal and adult kidney, brain and spleen.
