Function |
Essential for the organization of sarcomeric actin thin filaments in skeletal muscle (PubMed:25250574). Increases the rate of actin polymerization (PubMed:25250574). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25250574}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, myofibril, sarcomere, M line. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25250574}. Note=Highly expressed in nonstriated areas of developing myotubes, where it shows a granular cytoplasmic pattern. In sarcomeres, highly expressed in the M band region and, at lower levels, along actin thin filaments. Not detected in Z-disks. In sarcomeres, may be located near, but not at, actin thin filament pointed end. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25250574}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in cardiac and at higher levels in skeletal muscles (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25250574}.
