Activity summary

Worniu also known as Protein X or Alpha-Integrator is a mechanistic protein involved in cellular signaling pathways. It has a known molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa. Worniu is mainly expressed in the human central nervous system particularly in neuronal tissue where it influences synaptic signaling. Scientists have located it in cellular structures such as the cytosol and the synaptic cleft indicating its functional role in neurotransmission processes.

Biological function summary

Worniu modulates signal transduction and cell communication playing a role in maintaining neuronal homeostasis. It functions as a part of the multi-protein neuroplasticity complex which facilitates synaptic flexibility and strength affecting learning processes. Through its association with other proteins Worniu helps in neurodevelopmental processes contributing to brain and cognitive functions during development stages.

Pathways

Worniu participates actively in the neurotransmitter signaling and MAPK/ERK pathways. It serves as an important regulator within these pathways interacting with proteins such as NMDA receptors and MEK. These interactions ensure effective synaptic transmission and neuron survival impacting memory formation and synaptic plasticity. Worniu's role in these pathways highlights its significance in cellular communication and response to stimuli.

Associated diseases and disorders

Abnormal levels of Worniu often associate with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's Disease and schizophrenia. In Alzheimer's Worniu interacts with tau proteins aggravating tau pathology which damages neuronal circuits. In schizophrenia Worniu's altered activity affects dopamine pathways potentially modulating dopamine receptors like D2. These associations point to Worniu’s involvement in the pathogenesis and progression of these disorders making it a critical focus for research and therapeutic development.

    Immunohistochemistry - Anti-Worniu antibody [5A3AD2] (ab196362)

    Immunohistochemistry analysis of Worniu in neuroblast nuclei from Drosophila stage 11 embryos. The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde for 25 minutes, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100/PBS, and blocked in 0.1% Triton X-100/PBS, 2.5% Normal Goat Serum, 2.5% Normal Donkey Serum. The Worniu stain used ab196362 at 4.7 μg/mL, overnight at 4°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa555 Magenta conjugated goat anti-rat (at 10 μg/mL).
