ID:SHOT1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Shootin-1; FUNCTION: Involved in the generation of internal asymmetric signals required for neuronal polarization. Acts upstream of PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase), by being required for spatially localized PI3K activity. Accumulates asymmetrically in a single neurite before polarization, leading to axon induction for polarization, its absence from the nascent axon's siblings by competition preventing the formation of surplus axons (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Interacts with RUFY3 (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell projection, axon (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the shootin family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAH22348.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAA92019.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAG53052.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAG53110.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
