Camsap3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables microtubule minus-end binding activity. Involved in several processes, including establishment of epithelial cell apical/basal polarity; establishment or maintenance of microtubule cytoskeleton polarity; and regulation of microtubule polymerization. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Located in axoneme; ciliary basal body; and motile cilium. Colocalizes with microtubule minus-end. Is expressed in brain and lung epithelium. Orthologous to human CAMSAP3 (calmodulin regulated spectrin associated protein family member 3). [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 Camsap3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
