Misp Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including establishment of centrosome localization; microtubule cytoskeleton organization involved in mitosis; and regulation of protein localization to cell cortex. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; focal adhesion; and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human MISP (mitotic spindle positioning).

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