| UniProt functional annotation for P67966 | |||
| UniProt code: P67966. |
| Organism: | Gallus gallus (Chicken). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Archelosauria; Archosauria; Dinosauria; Saurischia; Theropoda; Coelurosauria; Aves; Neognathae; Galloanserae; Galliformes; Phasianidae; Phasianinae; Gallus. | |
| Function: | Heat stable protein, that interacts with zyxin/ZYX. May be a component of a signal transduction pathway that mediates adhesion- stimulated changes in gene expression. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8294495}. | |
| Subunit: | Probable monomer. Interacts with ZYX. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1469049, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8294495}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21291}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8294495}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8294495}. Note=Associates with the actin cytoskeleton. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8294495}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Most prominent in tissues that are enriched in smooth muscle cells, such as gizzard, stomach, and intestine. Lower level in the heart, no expression in liver, skeletal muscle, or brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8294495}. | |
| Developmental stage: | Expression levels increase dramatically during smooth muscle maturation. | |
| Domain: | Glycine-rich repeats mediate the association with the actin cytoskeleton. {ECO:0000305}. | |
