Islet Amyloid Polypeptide

Preferred Label : Islet Amyloid Polypeptide;

NCIt synonyms : DAP; Insulinoma Amyloid Peptide; Diabetes-Associated Peptide; Amylin;

NCIt definition : Islet amyloid polypeptide (89 aa, 10 kDa) is encoded by the human IAPP gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of glucose metabolism.;

NCIt note : The mature islet amyloid polypeptide protein is largely unstructured in the absence of a cognate ligand, and has a strong tendency to form fibrillar aggregates. Homodimerization may be the first step of amyloid formation. (UniProt); Islet amyloid polypeptide is the peptide subunit of amyloid found in pancreatic islets of type 2 diabetic patients and in insulinomas. (UniProt);
