Background: | This gene is overexpressed in breast cancer and squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck. The encoded protein is localized in the cytoplasm and in areas of the cell-substratum contacts. This gene has two roles: (1) regulating the interactions between components of adherens-type junctions and (2) organizing the cytoskeleton and cell adhesion structures of epithelia and carcinoma cells. During apoptosis, the encoded protein is degraded in a caspase-dependent manner. The aberrant regulation of this gene contributes to tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Three splice variants that encode different isoforms have been identified for this gene. |
UniProt Protein Function: | Cortactin: a cytoskeletal protein that that is involved in coordinating actin reorganization during cell movement. Localizes at the leading edge of lamellipodia during cell migration. Its amino-terminal acidic domain associates with the Arp2/3 and WASP complex at F-actin branches. The central region of the protein contains six repeats of 37 amino acids that are important in F-actin binding and cross-linking. The carboxy-terminus contains a proline-rich region and an SH3 domain that can interact with numerous scaffolding proteins, such as CortBP1 and Shank3. Cortactin may play a role in the organization of transmembrane receptors at postsynaptic densities (PSD) and tight junctions by linking scaffolding proteins to the actin network. It is degraded in a caspase-dependent manner during apoptosis. It is overexpressed in numerous cancers with poor patient prognosis. It may contribute to tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Two splice variant isoforms have been identified. |
