The NEDD4 family-interacting protein 1 (NDFIP1) belongs to a small group of evolutionarily conserved proteins with three transmembrane domains and is an integral Golgi membrane protein. It is a potential target for ubiquitination by the Nedd4 family of proteins. NDFIP1 is strongly expressed in surviving neurons following acute cortical brain injury, and overexpression in cultured cortical neurons increased survival following growth factor starvation, s
