MICAL3 is a 976 amino acid protein that localizes to both the cytoplasm and the cytoskeleton and contains one LIM zinc-binding domain and one calponin-homology domain. Expressed ubiquitously, MICAL3 uses FAD as a cofactor to interact with Rab 1B and, via this interaction, is thought to play a role in spermatid development. MICAL3 exists as two alternatively spliced isoforms that are encoded by a gene which maps to human chromosome 22. Chromosome 22 houses over 500 genes, some of which are involved in Phelan-McDermid syndrome, schizophrenia and Neurofibromatosis type 2.
