UniProt functional annotation for Q9DBJ3

UniProt code: Q9DBJ3.

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Mus; Mus.
 
Function: May function as adapter protein. Involved in the formation of clusters of actin bundles. Plays a role in the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton in response to bacterial infection (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
 
Subunit: Interacts with RAC1. Binds to F-actin. Interacts with FASLG (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250}. Note=Recruited to actin pedestals that are formed upon infection by bacteria at bacterial attachment sites. {ECO:0000250}.
Tissue specificity: Detected in bladder, liver, testes, heart, lung, spleen, brain and skeletal muscle (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17430976}.
Domain: The IMD domain is predicted to have a helical structure. It may induce actin bundling and filopodia formation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Ptm: Phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to insulin. {ECO:0000250}.
