    motifs/domains
  • a calponin homology (CH) domain (a putative actin binding site)
  • a GAS2-related (GAR) domain (a putative MT binding domain),
  • a larger unstructured C terminus that contains the conserved microtubule-tip localization sequences Ser/Thr-Xaa-Ile/Leu-Pro (or SxIP motifs) necessary for interaction with microtubule plus-end-binding (EB) proteins

    text
  • abundant at the apical surface of ciliated cells, where it localizes with basal bodies, basal feet, rootlets, and actin filaments
  • in normal airway ciliated cells, GAS2L2 localizes throughout the cytoplasm but is abundant near basal bodies
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in Cell cycle arrest
  • microtubule-actin cross-linking protein
  • GAS2L1, GAS2L2 and GAS2L3, are differentially involved in mediating the crosstalk between F-actin and microtubules
  • is expressed in ciliated cells at the node and might play a role in situs determination
  • plays a critical role in the airways by inter-connecting cytoskeletal elements, basal bodies, and basal feet
  • helps to maintain the correct orientation of basal bodies in ciliated cells
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell cycle
