domain:The ASD1 domain mediates F-actin binding.,domain:The ASD2 domain is required for apical constriction induction.,function:Controls cell shape changes in the neuroepithelium during neural tube closure. Induces apical constriction in epithelial cells by promoting the apical accumulation of F-actin and myosin II, and probably by bundling stress fibers. Induces apicobasal cell elongation by redistributing gamma-tubulin and directing the assembly of robust apicobasal microtubule arrays.,similarity:Belongs to the shroom family.,similarity:Contains 1 ASD1 domain.,similarity:Contains 1 ASD2 domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PDZ (DHR) domain.,subcellular location:Colocalizes with F-actin in stress fibers and adherens junctions.,subunit:Interacts with F-actin.,
Cell junction, adherens junction . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Apical cell membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein . Colocalizes with F-actin in stress fibers and adherens junctions. .
