Ankycorbin is an ankyrin repeat and coiled-coil domain containing protein that in humans is encoded by the RAI14 gene. It is expressed in a variety of human tissues and is thought to play a role in actin regulation of ectoplasmic specialization, establishment of sperm polarity and sperm adhesion. It may also promote the integrity of Sertoli cell tight junctions at the blood testis barrier.
Predicted to enable actin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including apoptotic signaling pathway; regulation of NIK/NF-kappaB signaling; and spermatogenesis. Located in cytosol; fibrillar center; and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
