Structural highlights
Disease[KI21A_HUMAN] Congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Function[KANK2_HUMAN] Involved in transcription regulation by sequestering nuclear receptor coactivators, such as NCOA1, NCOA2 and NCOA3, in the cytoplasm; the function is deregulated by phosphorylation. May be involved in the control of cytoskeleton formation by regulating actin polymerization. Involved in regulation of caspase-independent apoptosis; proposed to sequester AIFM1 in mitochondria and apoptotic stimuli lead to its proteasomal degradation allowing the release of AIFM1 to the nucleus. May be involved in promotion of cell proliferation.[1] [2] [KI21A_HUMAN] Microtubule-binding motor protein probably involved in neuronal axonal transport. In vitro, has a plus-end directed motor activity (By similarity). References
