Function |
Ca(2+)-regulated actin-binding protein. May have a unique function in the morphogenesis of neuronal cells which form ganglia. Required for SREC1-mediated regulation of neurite-like outgrowth. Plays a role in regenerative sensory axon outgrowth and remodeling processes after peripheral injury in neonates. Involved in the formation of long fine actin-containing filopodia-like structures in fibroblast. Plays a role in ciliogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20393563}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell projection {ECO:0000250}. Cell projection, axon {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Most highly expressed in the small intestine and colonic lining. Weaker expression also detected in the thymus, prostate, testes and uterus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12034507}.
