NEDD8-activating enzyme E1 regulatory subunit is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NAE1 gene.The protein encoded by this gene binds to the beta-amyloid precursor protein. Beta-amyloid precursor protein is a cell surface protein with signal-transducing properties and it is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease. In addition the encoded protein can form a heterodimer with UBE1C and bind and activate NEDD8 a ubiquitin-like protein.
