LongevityMap Gene
Gene details
- HGNC symbol
- MAPKAP1
- Aliases
- MIP1; SIN1; JC310; SIN1b; SIN1g
- Common name
- mitogen-activated protein kinase associated protein 1
- Description
- This gene encodes a protein that is highly similar to the yeast SIN1 protein, a stress-activated protein kinase. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. Alternate polyadenylation sites as well as alternate 3' UTRs have been identified for transcripts of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

- Study Design
- 1,018 SNPs within a 10-kb window around 40 mTOR signalling genes were studied for differences in variation between 417 unrelated nonagenarian participants and 476 younger controls
- Conclusions
- As a whole, there was a significant association of genetic variation in the mTOR pathway and familial longevity, though no individual gene was significant after correcting for multiple hypothesis testing
