Description
Product Characteristics: Folliculin-interacting protein 1 (FNIP1) is a co-chaperone of HSP90 (1). It Inhibits the ATPase activity of HSP90AA1 leading to reduction in its chaperone activity. It may be involved in energy and/or nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR signaling pathways and may regulate the phosphorylation of RPS6KB1 (2). FNIP1 is strongly expressed in the heart, liver placenta, muscle, nasal mucosa, salivary gland, and uvula. Elevated levels of FNIP1 have been detected in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) (3).
Target Information: May be involved in energy and/or nutrient sensing (By similarity)
