Background: NAIP

Neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein (NAIP; also Baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 1) is a 160 kDa member of the inhibitor of apoptosis family of proteins (also known as BIRC proteins). Human NAIP is 1403 amino acids (aa) in length.  It contains three distinct regions: an N-terminal cluster of three baculoviral inhibitory repeat (BIR) domains, a central nucleotide binding oligomerization domain (NOD), and a C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain.  Human NAIP shares 68% aa identity with mouse NAIP.  NAIP is expressed in motor neurons, but not in sensory neurons.  It is also expressed in the liver, placenta and to a lesser extent in the spinal cord.  NAIP prevents motor neuron apoptosis, and defects in NAIP have been found in individuals with spinal muscular atrophy.
