Also known as: JRAB; MICAL-L2; mFLJ00139; A930021H16Rik
Summary: Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity and small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including actin filament polymerization; bicellular tight junction assembly; and substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Acts upstream of or within endocytic recycling. Located in several cellular components, including actin filament bundle; bicellular tight junction; and recycling endosome. Colocalizes with stress fiber. Is expressed in several structures, including chondrocranium; liver lobe; medulla oblongata basal plate; submandibular gland primordium; and vibrissa. Orthologous to human MICALL2 (MICAL like 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
