Description
Product Characteristics:
DCTN6 belongs to the pointed end complex of the dynactin shoulder complex tpgether with the DCTN4, DCTN5 and DCTN6 subunits and ACTR10. DCTN6 contains an RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) motif in the N terminal region, which confers adhesive properties to macromolecular proteins like fibronectin. The exact function of this gene is not known.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm
Synonyms: Dynactin 6, Dynactin subunit p27, Novel RGD containing protein, Protein WS3, WS 3, WS3.
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene contains an RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) motif in the N-terminal region, which confers adhesive properties to macromolecular proteins like fibronectin. It shares a high degree of sequence similarity with the mouse homolog, which has been suggested to play a role in mitochondrial biogenesis. The exact biological function of this gene is not known.
