Function
Plays an important role in mitotic spindle pole organization via its interaction with NUMA1 (PubMed:11781568, PubMed:15632202, PubMed:21816348). Required for cortical dynein-dynactin complex recruitment during metaphase (PubMed:22327364). Plays a role in metaphase spindle orientation (PubMed:22327364). Also plays an important role in asymmetric cell divisions (PubMed:21816348). Has guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDI) activity towards G(i) alpha proteins, such as GNAI1 and GNAI3, and thereby regulates their activity (By similarity).

Supplementary info
- This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.
- Activity summary
LGN also known as GPSM2 (G-protein signaling modulator 2) is a protein involved in cellular processes related to signaling and cell polarity. It has a molecular mass of approximately 80 kDa. LGN is expressed in various tissues including the central nervous system where it plays a role in neural cell functions. This protein acts mechanically by interacting with G-proteins and aiding in proper signal transduction.
- Biological function summary
The protein LGN influences cell division by regulating spindle orientation which is essential for accurate cell fate determination. LGN is a part of a complex with the proteins NuMA (nuclear mitotic apparatus protein) and dynein-dynactin which assists in the positioning of the mitotic spindle during cellular division. This activity ensures that cells divide correctly maintaining tissue organization and function.
- Pathways
LGN is important in asymmetric cell division and cellular signaling. It is involved in the Wnt signaling pathway which is known for its role in cell growth and development. Additionally LGN interacts with G-proteins modulating their activity to facilitate proper signal transduction within these pathways. The influences on these pathways highlight the protein's necessity in maintaining cellular organization and signaling fidelity.
- Associated diseases and disorders
LGN is linked to certain neurodevelopmental disorders such as microcephaly where patients exhibit reduced brain size due to abnormal cell division. It also connects to certain types of cancer through its role in maintaining correct spindle orientation and polarity which is important for preventing uncontrolled cell proliferation. LGN's interaction with proteins like NuMA and G-proteins remains a focal point in understanding its impact on these conditions.
