Dlg5

Predicted to enable beta-catenin binding activity and cytoskeletal protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of dendritic spine development; positive regulation of synapse assembly; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including apical protein localization; epithelial cell differentiation; and nervous system development. Located in adherens junction and ciliary basal body. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; lung; and nervous system. Orthologous to human DLG5 (discs large MAGUK scaffold protein 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Dlg5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
