| 1997 | HAP1 (huntingtin-associated protein 1) interacts with the p150Glued subunit of dynactin and with the pericentriolar protein PCM-1. The interaction with p150Glued was confirmed by in vitro GST pulldown and co-immunoprecipitation from brain extracts, and both proteins co-localize in NGF-treated PC12 cells, suggesting HAP1 functions as an adaptor linking cytoskeletal, vesicular, and motor proteins. | GST pulldown, co-immunoprecipitation from brain extracts, double-label immunofluorescence confocal microscopy | Human molecular genetics | High | 9361024 |
| 1997 | HAP1 interacts with a Trio-like polypeptide (Duo) containing a Rac1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) domain, a pleckstrin homology domain, and spectrin-like repeats. The interaction was identified by yeast two-hybrid screen and confirmed by in vitro protein-binding assay, suggesting HAP1 may link huntingtin to a Ras-related signaling pathway. | Yeast two-hybrid screen, in vitro protein-binding assay | Human molecular genetics | Medium | 9285789 |
| 1996 | HAP1 is enriched in neurons and localizes to subcellular fractions containing synaptic vesicles. HAP1 and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) co-localize in discrete neuronal populations and share similar brain regional distributions, with both enriched in the pedunculopontine nuclei, accessory olfactory bulb, and supraoptic nucleus. | In situ hybridization, subcellular fractionation, immunocytochemistry | Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America | Medium | 8643490 |
| 1998 | Human HAP1 (hHAP) is specifically expressed in brain tissues, encodes a 75-kDa protein, and binds to huntingtin in a polyglutamine repeat length-dependent manner (longer repeats bind more tightly). The interaction was confirmed by in vitro binding, co-immunoprecipitation, and coexpression studies. | cDNA cloning, in vitro binding assay, co-immunoprecipitation, coexpression in mammalian cells | The Journal of biological chemistry | High | 9668110 |
| 1998 | HAP1 isoforms (HAP1-A and HAP1-B) associate with a unique cytoplasmic structure in neurons resembling the stigmoid body/nematosome. HAP1-A, but not HAP1-B, is essential for forming this inclusion structure in transfected cell lines. Both isoforms self-associate, and the ratio of HAP1-A to HAP1-B regulates inclusion formation. | Immunocytochemistry, electron microscopy, transfection of cell lines, yeast two-hybrid for self-association | Journal of neurochemistry | Medium | 9798945 |
| 2002 | Targeted disruption of HAP1 (Hap1-/-) in mice causes postnatal lethality due to severely depressed feeding behavior, malnutrition, and dehydration. 70% die by P2 and 100% by P9. HAP1 is particularly enriched in the hypothalamus, implicating it as essential for regulating postnatal feeding behavior. | Homologous recombination knockout, behavioral observation, serum leptin measurement, brain weight analysis | Human molecular genetics | High | 11971876 |
| 2003 | HAP1 interacts with NeuroD (a bHLH transcription factor) and serves as a scaffold facilitating NeuroD activation by MLK2 kinase. HAP1 and huntingtin facilitate MLK2-mediated phosphorylation and activation of NeuroD, identifying a neuron-specific transcriptional regulatory complex. | Yeast two-hybrid, co-immunoprecipitation, transcriptional reporter assays, kinase assay | Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America | Medium | 12881483 |
| 2004 | HAP1 null mutants rescued from early lethality (by litter size reduction) survive to adulthood with growth retardation but no overt brain or behavioral abnormalities, demonstrating HAP1 is required specifically for early postnatal feeding. Conditional gene repair restoring neuronal HAP1 expression before birth rescues early lethality. No synergism between Hap1 and huntingtin mutations was observed during development. | Conditional gene rescue (neuronal-specific), Hap1 null mouse characterization, litter size manipulation | Human molecular genetics | High | 15496430 |
| 2010 | HAP1 acts as an adaptor linking GABA-A receptors (GABAARs) to the kinesin motor KIF5, mediating anterograde delivery of GABAARs to synapses. Disrupting the HAP1-KIF5 complex reduces synaptic GABAAR number and decreases inhibitory postsynaptic current amplitude. Mutant huntingtin (polyQ-expanded) impairs GABAAR transport via disruption of this complex. | Co-immunoprecipitation, RNAi knockdown, electrophysiology (mIPSC recording), live imaging of receptor trafficking | Neuron | High | 20152113 |
| 2011 | HAP1 interacts with PCM1 (pericentriolar material 1 protein) and huntingtin (HTT) to regulate ciliogenesis. Loss of Htt in mouse cells impairs retrograde trafficking of PCM1 and reduces primary cilia formation. In HD mice, pathogenic polyQ-expanded HTT causes centrosomal accumulation of PCM1 and abnormally long primary cilia in striatal cells, altering CSF flow. | Co-immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence, conditional knockout (ependymal cell-specific Htt deletion), cilia length measurement in HD mouse models and patient tissue | The Journal of clinical investigation | High | 21985783 |
| 2011 | proBDNF forms a trimeric complex with HAP1 and sortilin that regulates proBDNF intracellular trafficking and stabilization. The HAP1-proBDNF interaction was confirmed by FRET and co-immunoprecipitation. GST pulldown mapping defined the HAP1 binding region (aa 371–445) for proBDNF. FRAP experiments in HAP1-/- neurons showed defective proBDNF vesicle movement, partially rescued by HAP1 re-expression. The complex also facilitates furin cleavage to release mature BDNF. | Co-immunoprecipitation, FRET, GST pulldown domain mapping, FRAP in HAP1-/- neurons, Western blot | The Journal of biological chemistry | High | 21357693 |
| 2011 | Mecp2 deficiency reduces Htt and Hap1 levels in mouse brain, causing defective BDNF axonal transport in the cortico-striatal pathway. Velocity of BDNF-containing vesicles is reduced in Mecp2-deficient axons and rescued by Mecp2 re-expression. APP transport (also Htt/Hap1-dependent) is similarly impaired, placing HAP1 in the Mecp2-Htt-Hap1 axis controlling axonal transport. | Live imaging of BDNF vesicle transport, in vitro neuronal culture, viral rescue, mouse behavioral and lifespan analysis | Neurobiology of disease | Medium | 22127389 |
| 2014 | Huntingtin (HTT) and HAP1 copurify and colocalize with autophagosomes in neurons. Using RNAi in primary neurons from GFP-LC3 mice and live-cell imaging, HTT and HAP1 were shown to control autophagosome dynamics by regulating dynein and kinesin motors to promote processive retrograde transport. PolyQ-HTT expression disrupts autophagosomal transport and leads to inefficient cargo degradation, without affecting autophagosome formation or cargo loading. | Autophagosome purification/co-purification, RNAi knockdown, live-cell imaging in primary neurons (GFP-LC3 mice), mitochondrial fragment degradation assay | The Journal of neuroscience | High | 24453320 |
| 2006 | HAP1 interacts with androgen receptor (AR) through the AR ligand-binding domain in a polyglutamine length-dependent manner. HAP1 sequesters polyQ-expanded AR into inclusions (stigmoid bodies) and suppresses SBMA-mutant AR-induced apoptosis when cotransfected in HEp-2 cells. Dihydrotestosterone reduces HAP1-AR association more strongly for normal than expanded polyQ-AR. | Co-transfection, co-immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence, apoptosis assay | Human molecular genetics | Medium | 16782802 |
| 2016 | HAP1 is required for GABAAR recycling to the neuronal surface. In hippocampal neurons subjected to oxygen/glucose deprivation (OGD), calpain cleaves HAP1, reducing GABAAR recycling. Overexpression of HAP1A or HAP1B isoforms restored GABAAR surface expression and reduced OGD-induced neuronal death, demonstrating HAP1's role in receptor recycling and neuroprotection during ischemia. | Transfection with myc-tagged GABAAR β3, surface biotinylation, co-immunoprecipitation, calpain cleavage assay, cell death assay in OGD model | Molecular neurobiology | Medium | 26732589 |
| 2017 | HAP1 regulates neuronal endocytosis and interacts with clathrin light chain B (validated by Co-IP and GST pulldown) and Sec23A (ER-to-Golgi vesicle coat; validated by endogenous Co-IP in rat brain). HAP1 co-localizes with clathrin light chain B. HAP1 knockout adrenal chromaffin cells show dramatically reduced vesicle retrieval and endocytosis, and HAP1-/- cortical neurons show impaired transferrin endocytosis. | Affinity chromatography/mass spectrometry proteomics, Co-IP, GST pulldown, immunofluorescence co-localization, endocytosis assay in HAP1-/- neurons | Cellular signalling | High | 28259758 |
| 2019 | HAP1 forms a ternary complex with huntingtin and the IP3 receptor (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor, an intracellular Ca2+ channel) on the ER membrane. Loss of HAP1 prevents this ternary complex formation, blocks ER Ca2+ release upon IP3 stimulation, inhibits external Ca2+ entry, and reduces activation of the Ca2+-dependent calpain-1-Bid-caspase-3/12 apoptotic pathway, causing l-asparaginase resistance in ALL cells. | Genome-wide RNAi screen, Co-immunoprecipitation (ternary complex), Ca2+ imaging, calpain/caspase activity assays, HAP1 knockdown rescue experiments | Blood | High | 30819925 |
| 2020 | AAV-mediated depletion of Hap1 in adult HD knock-in mouse brains causes selective neuronal loss in the striatum, but only in the presence of mutant HTT. Rhes (a striatum-enriched GTPase) binds more N-terminal HTT when Hap1 is absent, and more soluble sumoylated N-terminal HTT accumulates in the striatum, suggesting Hap1 normally sequesters or protects against toxic HTT fragments and that Rhes-Hap1 cooperate to determine selective striatal vulnerability. | AAV-mediated gene silencing in vivo, histological analysis of neuronal loss, Co-immunoprecipitation, Western blot for sumoylated HTT | Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America | Medium | 32747555 |
