Function

CTNA2_MOUSE May function as a linker between cadherin adhesion receptors and the cytoskeleton to regulate cell-cell adhesion and differentiation in the nervous system. Regulates morphological plasticity of synapses and cerebellar and hippocampal lamination during development. Functions in the control of startle modulation.^[1] ^[2] ^[3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The N-terminal vinculin-homology 1 (VH1) domain of alpha-catenin facilitates two exclusive forms, a monomeric form directly bound to beta-catenin for linking E-cadherin to F-actin or a homodimer for the inhibition of beta-catenin binding. Competition of these two forms is affected by approximately 80 N-terminal residues, whose structure is poorly understood. We have determined the structure of the monomeric free form of the alphaN-catenin VH1 domain and revealed that the N-terminal residues form alpha1 and alpha2 helices to complete formation of the N-terminal four-helix bundle. Dynamic conformational changes of these two helices control formation of the beta-catenin-bound monomer or unbound homodimer.
