Crystal Structure of Engineered Trimeric Cortexillin-1 Coiled-Coil Variant
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23691037
Function
[CTXA_DICDI] Acting-bundling protein. When linked to F-actin the actin filaments form preferentially anti-parallel bundles that associate into meshworks. Plays a major role in cytokinesis. Negatively regulates cortical localization of rapgap1.[1]
About this Structure
4j4a is a 12 chain structure with sequence from Dictyostelium discoideum. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
