Carmil2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable phospholipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including actin filament network formation; positive regulation of cellular component organization; and wound healing, spreading of cells. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including T cell receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of T cell activation; and positive regulation of cytokine production. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; immunological synapse; and macropinosome. Predicted to be part of F-actin capping protein complex. Predicted to be active in lamellipodium and plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 58. Orthologous to human CARMIL2 (capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 2). [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 Carmil2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
