  Domain Name: I-BAR_IMD_IRSp53
Inverse (I)-BAR, also known as the IRSp53/MIM homology Domain (IMD), of Insulin Receptor tyrosine kinase Substrate p53. 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. IRSp53 (Insulin Receptor tyrosine kinase Substrate p53) is also known as BAIAP2 (Brain-specific Angiogenesis Inhibitor 1-Associated Protein 2). It is a scaffolding protein that takes part in many signaling pathways including Cdc42-induced filopodia formation, Rac-mediated lamellipodia extension, and spine morphogenesis. IRSp53 exists as multiple splicing variants that differ mainly at the C-termini. One variant (T-form) is expressed exclusively in human breast cancer cells. The gene encoding IRSp53 is a putative susceptibility gene for Gilles de la Tourette syndrome. IRSp53 contains an N-terminal IMD, a CRIB (Cdc42 and Rac interactive binding motif), an SH3 domain, and a WASP homology 2 (WH2) actin-binding motif at the C-terminus. Its IMD domain binds and bundles actin filaments, binds membranes, and interacts with 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.
