ADNP (gene)

Vasoactive intestinal peptide is a neuroprotective factor that has a stimulatory effect on the growth of some tumor cells and an inhibitory effect on others. This gene encodes a protein that is upregulated by vasoactive intestinal peptide and may be involved in its stimulatory effect on certain tumor cells. The encoded protein contains one homeobox and nine zinc finger domains, suggesting that it functions as a transcription factor. This gene is also upregulated in normal proliferative tissues. Finally, the encoded protein may increase the viability of certain cell types through modulation of p53 activity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described.

Mutations in ADNP are the cause of ADNP syndrome.{{cite journal |vauthors=Helsmoortel C, Vulto-van Silfhout AT, Coe BP, Vandeweyer G, Rooms L, van den Ende J, Schuurs-Hoeijmakers JH, Marcelis CL, Willemsen MH, Vissers LE, Yntema HG, Bakshi M, Wilson M, Witherspoon KT, Malmgren H, Nordgren A, Annerén G, Fichera M, Bosco P, Romano C, de Vries BB, Kleefstra T, Kooy RF, Eichler EE, Van der Aa N | title = A SWI/SNF-related autism syndrome caused by de novo mutations in ADNP | journal = Nature Genetics | volume = 46 | issue = 4 | pages = 380–4 | year = 2014 | pmid = 24531329 | pmc = 3990853 | doi = 10.1038/ng.2899 }} Although it is unclear how mutations in the ADNP gene affect ADNP protein function, researchers suggest that the mutations result in abnormal chromatin remodeling. Disturbance of this process alters the activity of many genes and disrupts development or function of several of the body's tissues and organs, including the brain.{{cite web |title=ADNP syndrome: MedlinePlus Genetics |url=https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/adnp-syndrome/ |access-date=2023-04-19 |website=medlineplus.gov |language=en}}
