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. Plays a role in fluid-phase endocytosis, a process exploited by vaccinia intracellular mature virus (IMV) to enter cells. As a result, may facilitate the penetration of IMV into cells. Ref.6 Ref.8 |
| 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. Ref.8 Ref.9 |
| Subcellular location | Early endosome membrane. Cell membrane. Note: Partially colocalizes with RAB11A, a recycling endosome marker. Associates with lipid raft microdomains on the plasma membrane. Ref.6 Ref.8 |
| 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 AAH06456.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally extended. The sequence BAA25518.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened. |
