Summary: Predicted to enable SH2 domain binding activity and SH3 domain binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to be located in actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesion. Predicted to be active in actin filament and cytosol. Is expressed in cerebral cortex subventricular zone; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; and dentate gyrus subgranular zone. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in open-angle glaucoma. Orthologous to human AFAP1 (actin filament associated protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

These data define, for the first time, the requirement of AFAP1 for the spatial and temporal regulation of cSrc activity in the normal breast, specifically for milk production.
Title: Actin filament-associated protein 1 is required for cSrc activity and secretory activation in the lactating mammary gland.
AFAP120 may coordinate Src signaling with the dynamic changes in the actin cytoskeleton that drive growth cone motility and axon elongation.
Title: The actin cross-linking protein AFAP120 regulates axon elongation in a tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent manner.
Actin filament associated protein-110 (AFAP) colocalizes with cSrc to promote cSrc activation and cell migration.
Title: PI3K activation is required for PMA-directed activation of cSrc by AFAP-110.
These results indicate that AFAP120 plays a role in organizing dynamic actin structures during neuronal differentiation and suggest that AFAP120 may help regulate the transition from motile precursor to morphologically differentiated neurons.
Title: AFAP120 regulates actin organization during neuronal differentiation.
Data suggest that one major function of AFAP-110 is to relay signals from protein kinase C alpha that direct the activation of c-Src and the formation of podosomes.
Title: Protein kinase Calpha activates c-Src and induces podosome formation via AFAP-110.
In E16 mouse embryos, AFAP expression levels concentrated in the olfactory bulb, cortex, forebrain, cerebellum, and various peripheral sensory structures.In P3 mouse pups, overall expression was reduced. (AFAP-110)
Title: Protein expression levels of the Src activating protein AFAP are developmentally regulated in brain.

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.
