Description
BIN1, also known as SH3P9, is a nucleocytoplasmic adaptor protein, one of which was initially identified as MYC-interacting protein with features of a tumor suppressor. This protein interacts with and inhibits the oncogenic activity of the myc oncoprotein that has a major role in many human cancers. The loss of Bin1 may contribute to growth deregulation in cancer cells in carcinoma of the breast, colon, lung, cervix, prostate and liver
