Facts about MARCKS-related protein.
When phosphorylated by MAPK8, induces actin bundles formation and stabilization, thereby reducing actin plasticity, hence restricting cell movement, such as neuronal migration. May also affect cancer cell migration.

Expressed at high levels in brain cortex and hippocampus (at protein level), including dentate gyrus, anterior olfactory nucleus, primary olfactory cortex, entorhinal cortex, medial preoptic area and dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus. Expressed in neuronal cells (at protein level). Also detected in the retina. Up-regulated in a wide variety of cancers.
