Sequence CautionSequence=BAA86482.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAD97324.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the CYFIP family. {ECO:0000255}.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10449408, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17245118}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome. Note=Highly expressed in the perinuclear region. Enriched in synaptosomes. Treatment with leptomycin-B triggers translocation to the nucleus. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5SQX6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10449408, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17245118}.
SubunitInteracts with FMR1, FXR1 AND FXR2. Component of the WAVE1 complex composed of ABI2, CYFIP2, BRK1, NCKAP1 and WASF1/WAVE1. CYFIP2 binds to activated RAC1 which causes the complex to dissociate, releasing activated WASF1. The complex can also be activated by NCK1. Interacts with SHANK3; the interaction mediates the association of SHANK3 with the WAVE1 complex. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15048733}.
Tissue SpecificityExpressed in T-cells. Increased expression is observed in CD4(+) T-lymphocytes from patients with multiple sclerosis (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15048733}.
