Phosphatidylinositol binding clathrin assembly protein, also known as PICALM, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the PICALM gene.[1]

Interactions

PICALM has been shown to interact with CLTC.[2]

Clinical significance

In humans, certain alleles of this gene have been statistically associated with an increased risk of developing late-onset Alzheimer's disease.[3]
