Inverse (I)-BAR, also known as the IRSp53/MIM homology Domain (IMD), of Brain-specific Angiogenesis Inhibitor 1-Associated Protein 2-Like 1. The IMD domain, also called Inverse-Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (I-BAR) domain, is a dimerization and lipid-binding module that bends membranes and induces membrane protrusions. BAIAP2L1 (Brain-specific Angiogenesis Inhibitor 1-Associated Protein 2-Like 1) is also known as IRTKS (Insulin Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Substrate). It is widely expressed, serves as a substrate for the insulin receptor, and binds the small GTPase Rac. It plays a role in regulating the actin cytoskeleton and colocalizes with F-actin, cortactin, VASP, and vinculin. BAIAP2L1 expression leads to the formation of short actin bundles, distinct from filopodia-like protrusions induced by the expression of the related protein IRSp53. It contains an N-terminal IMD, an SH3 domain, and a WASP homology 2 (WH2) actin-binding motif at the C-terminus. The IMD domain of BAIAP2L1 binds and bundles actin filaments, and binds the small GTPase Rac.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:
