PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • several domains involved in protein-protein interaction
  • three proline-rich domains, partially involved in colocalization in the mitochondria, and required for the interaction with PBR (benzodiazepine receptor)
  • three leucine zipper motifs
  • three Src homology region 3 (SH3)-like domain, probably recognizing specific PXXP motifs
  • two to three fibronectin III repeats (Mittelstaedt 2007)
  • HOMOLOGY
    intraspecies homolog to KIAA0318

    basic FUNCTION
  • may be functioning as a scaffold for the association between RIMS1, RIMS2, RIMS3, RIMS4 and voltage-gated Ca2+ channels
  • having a potential role as important molecular adaptors (Mittelstaedt 2007)
  • adaptor molecule known to regulate synaptic transmission (pMID: 19557195)
