Summary: Enables microtubule binding activity. Acts upstream of or within bicellular tight junction assembly; epithelial cell morphogenesis; and microtubule cytoskeleton organization. Located in bicellular tight junction and brush border. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; pituitary gland; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human CGN (cingulin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

The tight junction protein cingulin regulates the vascular response to burn injury in a mouse model.
Title: The tight junction protein cingulin regulates the vascular response to burn injury in a mouse model.
The authors found that cingulin's binding properties to actin filaments and microtubules was regulated by AMPK-dependent phosphorylation that changed its conformation and binding properties.

Cingulin modulates barrier function in endothelium.
Title: Evidence That Cingulin Regulates Endothelial Barrier Function In Vitro and In Vivo.
the regulated cingulin-microtubule association has a specific role in tight junction-related epithelial morphogenesis that is sensitive to metabolic homeostasis-related AMPK activity.
Title: The association of microtubules with tight junctions is promoted by cingulin phosphorylation by AMPK.
cingulin is dispensable for the structure and barrier function of tight junctions, and is embedded in signaling networks that control the expression of claudin-2.
Title: Cingulin is dispensable for epithelial barrier function and tight junction structure, and plays a role in the control of claudin-2 expression and response to duodenal mucosa injury.
Data show by immunofluorescence labeling that the cytoskeletal-associated protein cingulin, commonly found at tight junctions, is also localized at neuronal gap junctions throughout the central nervous system.
Title: Under construction: building the macromolecular superstructure and signaling components of an electrical synapse.
cingulin does not have a critical role in tight-junction formation, but gene expression and tight junction protein levels are altered by the cingulin mutation
Title: Disruption of the cingulin gene does not prevent tight junction formation but alters gene expression.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
