In the developing cortex, cortical neurons must migrate over long distances to reach the site of their final differentiation.
DCX is a cytoplasmic protein which appears to direct neuronal migration by regulating the organization and stability of microtubules.
The protein contains two doublecortin domains, which bind microtubules.
In addition, DCX interacts with LIS1, the regulatory gamma subunit of platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase, and this interaction is important to proper microtubule function in the developing cortex.In the developing cortex, cortical neurons must migrate over long distances to reach the site of their final differentiation.

Mutations in this gene are a cause of X-linked lissencephaly.
Multiple transcript variants encoding at least three different isoforms have been found for this gene.
