Camsap1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables calmodulin binding activity and spectrin binding activity. Involved in neuron projection development. Predicted to be located in microtubule. Predicted to colocalize with microtubule minus-end. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations. Orthologous to human CAMSAP1 (calmodulin regulated spectrin associated protein 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 Camsap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
