Programmed cell death 6-interacting protein (UniProt: Q9WU78; also known as ALG-2-interacting protein 1, ALG-2-interacting protein X, E2F1-inducible protein, Eig2) is encoded by the Pdcd6ip (also known as Aip1, Alix) gene (Gene ID: 18571) in murine species. AIP1 is a class E VPS cytoplasmic, ubiquitously expressed protein that is involved in concentration and sorting of cargo proteins of the multi-vesicular body (MVB) for incorporation into intra-lumenal vesicles (ILVs) that are generated by invagination and scission from the limiting membrane of the endosome. AIP1 interacts with ALG-2 (apoptosis-linked gene-2) to regulate cell death. This interaction is strictly dependent on calcium. AIP1 is considered to be essential for the maintenance of fibroblast morphology and has been shown to play a role in the regulation of both apoptosis and cell proliferation. AIP1 is also known to regulate exosome biogenesis in concert with SDC1/4 and SDCBP. AIP1 can undergo phosphorylated on tyrosine residues by activated platelet-derived growth factor receptor-beta (PDGFRB).
