Its N-terminal acidic domain (NTA) associates with the Arp2/3 and WASP complex at F-actin branches.
The central region of the protein contains six repeats of 37 amino acid that are important in F-actin binding and cross-linking.
The C-terminus contains a proline-rich region and an SH3 domain that can interact with numerous scaffolding proteins, such as CortBP1 and Shank3.
Cortactin is involved in signaling events that coordinate actin reorganization during cell movement.
The human cortactin homologue EMS1 is overexpressed in numerous cancers with poor patient prognosis.
Cortactin may also play an important role in the organization of transmembrane receptors at postsynaptic densities (PSD) and tight junctions by linking scaffolding proteins to the actin network.
