Cttnbp2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable SH3 domain binding activity and cytoskeletal regulatory protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of modification of postsynaptic actin cytoskeleton. Predicted to act upstream of or within actin cytoskeleton organization. Located in dendritic spine. Part of FAR/SIN/STRIPAK complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic actin cytoskeleton. Is expressed in brain; dorsal grey horn; glans of male genital tubercle; intestine smooth muscle circular layer; and limb. Orthologous to human CTTNBP2 (cortactin binding protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 mouse Cttnbp2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
