GRB2-associated-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GAB1 gene. [5]
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the IRS1-like multisubstrate docking protein family. The encoded protein is an important mediator of branching tubulogenesis and plays a central role in cellular growth response, transformation and apoptosis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [6] GAB1 is involved also in the tonic pAKT activity in malignant B cells, and induces PI3K activation irrespectively of BCR stimulation by antigen in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. [7]
GAB1 has been shown to interact with:
