Summary
Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of lamellipodium organization; positive regulation of substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading; and positive regulation of supramolecular fiber organization. Located in lamellipodium. Part of filamentous actin. Is expressed in palatal shelf; skeleton; telencephalon; and vibrissa. Orthologous to human CARMIL1 (capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

Suppressed Reference Sequence(s)

The following Reference Sequences have been suppressed. Explain

  1. NM_177807.2: Suppressed sequence

    Description
    NM_177807.2: This RefSeq was suppressed temporarily based on the calculation that the annotated protein was shorter than a protein or proteins from a putative ortholog.
