PROTEIN
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • several conserved functional domains found in Lgl, suggesting that these proteins may have closely related functions (Shimanski 2005)
  • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to drosophila Lgl
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • WD repeat L(2)GL family
  • CATEGORY structural protein , tumor suppressor
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,cytoskeleton
    basic FUNCTION
  • control of cell proliferation
  • its expression increased cell adhesion and decreased cell migration (Shimanski 2005)
  • binds Myosin II and is involved in maintaining cell polarity and epithelial integrity (Shimanski 2005)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell organization/biogenesis
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY

    a component
  • part of DLG1/SCRIB/LLGL1 tumour suppressor complex, interacting with tSNARE syntaxin 4 (Massimi 2008)
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
