Carmil1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in several processes, including actin filament network formation; plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization; and regulation of actin filament organization. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell leading edge; macropinosome; and nuclear speck. Predicted to be part of filamentous actin. Predicted to be active in lamellipodium and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human CARMIL1 (capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 1). [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 rat Carmil1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
