This protein binds F-actin, crosslinks actin filaments, and prevents latrunculin A-induced filament disassembly. Mutations in this gene have been associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and myofibrillar myopathies. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Component of a complex of multiple actin cross-linking proteins. Involved in the control of myofibril assembly and stability at the Z lines in muscle cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12499399}. |I-set| |V-set| |axon guidance receptor activity| |alpha-actinin binding| |structural constituent of muscle| |sarcolemma| |Z disc| |homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules| |actin cytoskeleton| |muscle contraction| |cell-cell adhesion via plasma-membrane adhesion molecules| |axon guidance| |neuron projection guidance| |actin binding| |synapse organization| |axon| |muscle system process| |axonogenesis| |neuronal cell body| |axon development| |cell morphogenesis involved in neuron differentiation| |neuron projection morphogenesis| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection morphogenesis| |cell projection morphogenesis| |cell-cell adhesion| |cell part morphogenesis| |chemotaxis| |taxis| |cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |neuron projection development| |cell morphogenesis| |neuron development| |cellular component morphogenesis| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |neuron differentiation| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |cell projection organization| |locomotion| |generation of neurons| |movement of cell or subcellular component| |neurogenesis| |cell development| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
