toca-2

Gene
toca-2
Protein
Transducer of Cdc42-dependent actin assembly protein 2 homolog
Organism
Caenorhabditis elegans
Length
610 amino acids
Function
Plays a role in protein trafficking, actin organization and embryonic morphogenesis (PubMed:19798448). Potentially acts as cdc-42 effector (PubMed:25775511). May play a role in egg laying (PubMed:19798448). Together with toca-1, is required for protein trafficking regulating yolk protein clathrin-mediated endocytosis by oocytes during oogenesis and retrograde recycling and the sorting of recycling endosome cargo proteins such as mig-14 (PubMed:19798448, PubMed:25775511). Also, together with toca-2, controls the distribution of actin at cell junctions (PubMed:19798448, PubMed:26578656).
Similarity
Belongs to the FNBP1 family.
