Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables several functions, including SMAD binding activity; beta-catenin binding activity; and enzyme binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of JNK cascade and positive regulation of protein phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of protein metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including cell cortex; cytoplasmic vesicle; and microtubule cytoskeleton. Part of Wnt signalosome and beta-catenin destruction complex. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; forebrain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and jaw. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma; lung cancer; and urinary bladder cancer. Orthologous to human AXIN1 (axin 1).
