Ankyrins are membrane adaptor molecules that play important roles in the control of cytoskeleton formation by regulating actin polymerization.
KANK1 (KN motif and ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 1), also known as ANKRD15, is a 1352aa protein that contains at least 12 exons and 5 ANK repeats.
It binds to beta-catenin and regulates its subcellular distribution.
KANK1 is ubiquitously expressed and localizes to cytoplasm.
It may function as a tumor suppressor for renal cell carcinoma.
Mutations in this gene cause cerebral palsy spastic quadriplegic type 2, a central nervous system development disorder.
