Crystal structure of the alphaN-catenin actin-binding domain

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23589308

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]
