General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Component of the WASH complex, a complex present at the surface of endosomes that recruits and activates the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization. The WASH complex plays a key role in the fission of tubules that serve as transport intermediates during endosome sorting. In the complex, it probably mediates the recruitment of the complex to endosome membranes By similarity. |
| Subunit structure | Component of the WASH complex, composed of F-actin-capping protein subunit alpha (CAPZA1, CAPZA2 or CAPZA3), F-actin-capping protein subunit beta (CAPZB), WASH (WASH1, WASH2P, WASH3P, WASH4P, WASH5P or WASH6P), FAM21 (FAM21A, FAM21B or FAM21C), KIAA1033, KIAA0196 and CCDC53. Interacts (via N-terminus) with WASH1; the interaction is direct By similarity. |
| Subcellular location | Early endosome membrane By similarity. |
| Miscellaneous | In human, FAM21 has undergone evolutionary duplication, with 4 highly homologous family members existing, including FAM21A, FAM21B, FAM21C, and an N-terminally truncated FAM21D form. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the FAM21 family. |
| Sequence caution | The sequence CAI17187.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous gene model prediction. |
