Summary
CARMIL2 (capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 2, HGNC:27089) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16q22.1, encoding Capping protein, Arp2/3 and myosin-I linker protein 2 (Q6F5E8). Cell membrane-cytoskeleton-associated protein that plays a role in the regulation of actin polymerization at the barbed end of actin filaments.
This gene encodes a member of the CARMIL (capping protein, Arp2/3, myosin-I linker) family of proteins. The encoded protein interacts with and negatively regulates the heterodimeric capping protein and promotes cell migration. Reduced expression of this gene has been observed in human psoriasis patients. Mutations in this gene cause a human immunodeficiency syndrome characterized by smooth muscle tumors and impaired T-cell function.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 15)
- On the basis of these results, we propose a model in which dynamic vimentin filaments target CARMIL2 to critical membrane-associated locations, where CARMIL2 regulates CP, and thus actin assembly, to create cell protrusions (PMID:26466680)
- Data suggest that CARMIL2 displays two localization patterns in cells; one coincides with vimentin intermediate filaments, and the other coincides with cell membrane at leading edge of migrating cells. (PMID:26578515)
- the scaffolding role of RLTPR predominates during CD28 co-stimulation and underpins the similar function of RLTPR in human and mouse T cells. (PMID:27647348)
- Human RLTPR deficiency is a Combined immunodeficiency affecting at least the CD28-responsive pathway in T cells and the BCR-responsive pathway in B cells. (PMID:27647349)
- These cases showed that CARMIL2-deficiency is an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency disorder associated with defective CD28-mediated TCR co-signalling and impaired cytoskeletal dynamics. (PMID:28112205)
- RLTPR (p.Q575E) increases binding of RLTPR to downstream components of the NF-kappaB signaling pathway, selectively upregulates the NF-kappaB pathway in activated T cells. (PMID:28694326)
- this study reports three patients with a recently described combined immunodeficiency disorder, CARMIL2-deficiency, bearing a novel homozygous mutation on splice-acceptor site region on CARMIL2-gene (PMID:31001706)
- This case provides evidence that CARMIL2 should be a candidate gene when diagnosing children with very early onset inflammatory and eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders, even when signs of immunodeficiency are not observed. (PMID:31079270)
- The study highlights that human CARMIL2 deficiency can manifest with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)-like symptoms. (PMID:31115454)
- Synaptic actin stabilization protein loss in Down syndrome and Alzheimer disease. (PMID:31410926)
- Exogenous interleukin-2 can rescue in-vitro T cell activation and proliferation in patients with a novel capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 2 mutation. (PMID:32201938)

Function. Cell membrane-cytoskeleton-associated protein that plays a role in the regulation of actin polymerization at the barbed end of actin filaments. Prevents F-actin heterodimeric capping protein (CP) activity at the leading edges of migrating cells, and hence generates uncapped barbed ends and enhances actin polymerization. Plays a role in cell protrusion formations; involved in cell polarity, lamellipodial assembly, membrane ruffling and macropinosome formations. Involved as well in cell migration and invadopodia formation during wound healing. Required for CD28-mediated stimulation of NF-kappa-B signaling, involved in naive T cells activation, maturation into T memory cells, and differentiation into T helper and T regulatory cells.
Subunit / interactions. Forms homodimers. Interacts (via C-terminus) with heterodimeric capping protein (CP); the interaction inhibits CP activity and hence promotes actin polymerization at the barbed end of actin filaments.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Cell membrane. Cell projection. Lamellipodium. Ruffle.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in all tissues tested, including thymus, spleen, colon, leukocytes, peripheral blood, skin, skin keratinocytes and skin fibroblasts. Strong expression is detected in naive and memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, naive and memory B cells, regulatory T cells and NK cells, whereas it is poorly expressed in monocytes.
Disease relevance. Immunodeficiency 58 (IMD58) [MIM:618131] An autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency characterized by a variety of infectious diseases, including mycobacterial diseases, mucocutaneous candidiasis, silent but detectable EBV viremia, and staphylococcal diseases. Patients suffer from dermatitis, esophagitis, recurrent skin abscesses and chest infections. Immunologic analysis shows defective T-cell function and deficient CD3/CD28 stimulation responses in both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. B-cell function may also be impaired. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. The N-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain is necessary for localization to vimentin filaments. The C-terminus is necessary for localization to the cell membrane.
Similarity. Belongs to the CARMIL family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 27 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
