The APC protein, its primary sequence encompassing 2843 aminoacids<ref name="uniprot">https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P25054</ref>), consists of multiple domains, which enable it to interact with diverse partners. At the N-terminus, an oligomerisation domain is found, enabling the APC protein to oligomerise. It is followed by seven so called armadillo repeats, which form a groove for binding of a guanine nucleotide exchange factor Asef<ref name="Zhang2012">Zhang, Z. et al. (2012) ‘Structural basis for the recognition of Asef by adenomatous polyposis coli’, Cell Research. Nature Publishing Group, 22(2), pp. 372–386. doi: 10.1038/cr.2011.119.</ref>. The central part of APC contains three 15 aminoacid long repeats followed by seven 20 aminoacid long repeats<ref name="Zhang2017"/>. These motifs serve as binding sites for β-catenin<ref name="Hou2011">Hou, F. et al.

In between the 20 aminoacid repeats, three SAMP regions are dispersed, enabling the interaction with Axin<ref name="Zhang2017"/>. At the C-terminus, a basic domain responsible for binding to microtubules as well as EB1 interaction domain are present<ref name="Su1995">Su, L. K. et al.
