About Mlc1

Summary

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including caveolin-mediated endocytosis; cellular response to cholesterol; and regulation of response to osmotic stress. Predicted to act upstream of or within ion transport. Located in several cellular components, including apical plasma membrane; astrocyte end-foot; and cell-cell junction. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; gut; and male reproductive gland or organ. Used to study megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in megalencephalic leukoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts 1. Orthologous to human MLC1 (modulator of VRAC current 1).
