FKBP52

FK506-binding protein 4 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the FKBP4 is_associated_with::gene.

This protein contains TPR repeats and has a is_associated_with::PPlase domain.

Recent research suggests that FKBP52 may play a role in preventing the is_associated_with::Tau protein from turning pathogenic. This may prove significant for the development of new is_associated_with::Alzheimer's drugs and for detecting the disease before the onset of clinical symptoms.

Interactions
FKBP52 has been shown to interact with is_associated_with::GLMN.
