Function Binds CAPZA2 with high affinity and significantly decreases CAPZA2 affinity for actin barbed ends. Increases the rate of elongation from seeds in the presence of CAPZA2, however, seems unable to nucleate filaments. Rapidly uncaps barbed ends capped by CAPZA2 and enhances barbed-end actin polymerization (By similarity). May control actin dynamics in lamellipodia. Required for cell migration. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16054028, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19846667}.
Subcellular Location Cell projection, lamellipodium {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19846667}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19846667}. Note=Colocalized with F-actin in lamellipodia but not with F-actin in stress fibers. Also found on macropinosomes.
Tissue Specificity Expressed in lung, placenta, small intestine, liver, thymus, colon, skeletal muscle, heart and brain. Higher expression in kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16054028}.
