UniProt Protein Function:
MICAL2: Monooxygenase that promotes depolymerization of F-actin by mediating oxidation of specific methionine residues on actin. Acts by modifying actin subunits through the addition of oxygen to form methionine-sulfoxide, leading to promote actin filament severing and prevent repolymerization. Belongs to the Mical family. 6 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.Protein type: EC 1.14.13.-; Adaptor/scaffoldChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11p15.3Cellular Component: nucleusMolecular Function: actin binding; oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen, NADH or NADPH as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of oxygenBiological Process: actin filament depolymerization; cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; heart development; heart looping; sulfur oxidation
