InnateDB Annotation
Summary
AP3B1 (AP-3), a lysosome-related organelle trafficking and biogenesis protein, is required for the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in plasmacytoid dendritic cells upon recognition of viral nucleic acids by endosomal TLR7 or TLR9.
AP3B1 is crucial for the trafficking of TLR9 to specific endosomal compartments for the induction of type I interferon.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Mus musculus] Ap3b1 (AP-3), a lysosome-related organelle trafficking and biogenesis protein, is required for the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in plasmacytoid dendritic cells upon recognition of viral nucleic acids by endosomal Tlr7 or Tlr9.
[Mus musculus] Ap3b1 is crucial for the trafficking of Tlr9 to specific endosomal compartments for the induction of type I interferon.
[Mus musculus] Cytokine activation as a result of Tlr2 stimulation is mediated by the phagosomal trafficking molecule Ap3b1 (AP-3).
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene encodes a protein that may play a role in organelle biogenesis associated with melanosomes, platelet dense granules, and lysosomes. The encoded protein is part of the heterotetrameric AP-3 protein complex which interacts with the scaffolding protein clathrin. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 2. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
