Name
MAGI (Membrane Associated Guanylate kinase Inverted) homolog 1
Synonyms
  • CELE_K01A6.2
  • K01A6.2
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables beta-catenin binding activity and glutamate receptor binding activity. Involved in habituation; long-term memory; and regulation of protein localization. Located in adherens junction and synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including anus; egg-laying apparatus; intestine; neurons; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 15. Orthologous to several human genes including MAGI3 (membrane associated guanylate kinase, WW and PDZ domain containing 3).
WB Description
magi-1 encodes a multi PDZ-domain containing tight junction-associated protein: MAGIs are members of vertebrate membrane associated guanylate-kinase (MAGUK) family (OMIM: 602625); MAGI-1/S-SCAM is also a broadly conserved synaptic scaffolding molecule; MAGI-1 is a component of a protein complex that functions as an organizer which maintains special segregation of different adhesion complexes into distinct lateral membrane domains; in magi-1 mutants spatial separation between DAC and CCC complexes gets disrupted resulting in loss of compartmentalization and reduced strength of the epithelial cell adhesion in embryos; MAGI-1 is required for regulating synaptic plasticity by setting up different junctional compartments at newly forming cell junctions and by modulating synaptic structures: MAGI-1 plays a role in consolidation of changes in synapse structure during associative learning by organizing localization of synaptic adhesion molecules; MAGI-1 localizes to epithelial junction via its third PDZ domain, accumulates at the leading edge of migrating cells during ventral enclosure; antibody staining reveals that MAGI-1 localizes in a distinct band apical to the CCC and DAC protein complexes.
