Summary
FEZ1 (fasciculation and elongation protein zeta 1, HGNC:3659) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q24.2, encoding Fasciculation and elongation protein zeta-1 (Q99689). May be involved in axonal outgrowth as component of the network of molecules that regulate cellular morphology and axon guidance machinery.
This gene is an ortholog of the C. elegans unc-76 gene, which is necessary for normal axonal bundling and elongation within axon bundles. Expression of this gene in C. elegans unc-76 mutants can restore to the mutants partial locomotion and axonal fasciculation, suggesting that it also functions in axonal outgrowth. The N-terminal half of the gene product is highly acidic. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms of this protein have been described.

Function. May be involved in axonal outgrowth as component of the network of molecules that regulate cellular morphology and axon guidance machinery. Able to restore partial locomotion and axonal fasciculation to C.elegans unc-76 mutants in germline transformation experiments. May participate in the transport of mitochondria and other cargos along microtubules.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer; disulfide-linked. May form heterodimers with FEZ2. Interacts with the NH2-terminal variable region (V1) of PKC zeta and weakly with that of PKC epsilon. Interacts with UBE4B. Interacts with SAP30L. Interacts with SCOC and ULK1; SCOC interferes with ULK1-binding to FEZ1. Directly interacts with SCOC and UVRAG. Stabilizes the interaction between SCOC and UVRAG during amino acid starvation.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Microtubule organizing center. Centrosome. Cell membrane.
Tissue specificity. Mainly expressed in brain.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated by protein kinase C zeta; which enhances interaction with UBE4B and polyubiquitination. Polyubiquitinated in a UBE4B-dependent manner; which does not lead to proteasomal degradation and may be important for neurogenic activity. Polyubiquitin linkage seems to be mainly through Lys-26.
Similarity. Belongs to the zygin family.
