Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including PDZ domain binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and scaffold protein binding activity. Involved in actin filament organization; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and regulation of cell shape. Acts upstream of or within dendrite development and regulation of synaptic plasticity. Located in neuron projection. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; and autism spectrum disorder. Orthologous to human BAIAP2 (BAR/IMD domain containing adaptor protein 2).
