MAGI1 Gene Summary [Human]

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the membrane-associated guanylate kinase homologue (MAGUK) family. MAGUK proteins participate in the assembly of multiprotein complexes on the inner surface of the plasma membrane at regions of cell-cell contact. The product of this gene may play a role as scaffolding protein at cell-cell junctions. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human MAGI1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Domain present in PSD-95, Dlg, and ZO-1/2
  • actinin binding
  • canonical PDZ domain
  • enzyme

  • WW domain
  • kinase
  • Unstructured region on MAGI
  • Domain with 2 conserved Trp (W) residues
