Summary	CAMDI, which translocates to the centrosome in a DISC1-dependent manner. Knockdown of CAMDI by shRNA revealed severely impaired radial migration with disoriented centrosomes. A yeast two-hybrid screen identified myosin II as a binding protein of CAMDI. CAMDI interacts preferentially with phosphomyosin II and induces an accumulation of phosphomyosin II at the centrosome in a DISC1-dependent manner. Interestingly, one single nucleotide polymorphism of the CAMDI gene (R828W) is identified, and its gene product was found to reduce the binding ability to phosphomyosin II. Furthermore, mice with overexpression of R828W in neurons exhibit an impaired radial migration. CAMDI is required for radial migration probably through DISC1 and myosin II-mediated centrosome positioning during neuronal development.
