PROTEIN
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES acid Amphiphilic
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • a previously uncharacterized N-terminal sequence encompassing a forkhead-associated (FHA) domain that resides at the centrosome
  • putative transmembrane domain at the C terminus, unique C-terminal membrane anchors that could target this molecule to distinct subcellular membranes
  • two potential leucine zipper motif
  • secondary structure a large region of coiled-coil structure including an 11 heptad acidic amphipathic alpha-helical segment
    HOMOLOGY

    FAMILY

    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
        intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,organelle,endoplasmic reticulum
    basic FUNCTION
  • tail-anchores membrane protein exhibiting tissue-specific expression and situated to serve a variety of roles through their coiled-coil motifs
  • could self assemble and bind myosin in cardiac muscle
  • playing a potential role in the structural arrangement of the E-C (excitation-contraction) coupling apparatus
  • SLMAP is a regulator of E-C coupling at the level of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and its perturbation results in progressive deterioration of cardiac electrophysiology and function
  • tail-anchored protein involved in fundamental cellular processes, such as myoblast fusion, cell cycle progression, and chromosomal inheritance
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • component of the microtubule organizing centre
  • part of the conserved striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK) complex required for specific signaling pathways
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • complex striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK), can establish mutually exclusive interactions with the cortactin-binding proteins cortactin-binding protein 2 (CTTNBP2)/cortactin-binding protein 2, N-terminal-like (CTTNBP2NL) or with an assembly of sarcolemmal membrane-associated protein (SLMAP)
