Facts about Disrupted in schizophrenia 1 protein.
Plays a role as a modulator of the AKT-mTOR signaling pathway controlling the speed of the process of toddlers integration during adult neurogenesis, such as neuron placement, dendritic development and synapse formation. Inhibits the activation of AKT-mTOR signaling upon interaction with CCDC88A.

Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Also expressed in the temporal and parahippocampal cortices and cells of the white matter.
Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Mitochondrion. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic density. Colocalizes with NDEL1 in the perinuclear region and the centrosome (By similarity). Localizes to punctate cytoplasmic foci which overlap in part with mitochondria (PubMed:12506198, PubMed:15797709). Colocalizes with PCNT at the centrosome (PubMed:18955030).
