Summary
This gene encodes a protein with gelsolin-like repeats and an N-terminal leucine-rich repeat domain. The protein is similar to a Drosophila protein involved in early embryogenesis and the structural organization of indirect flight muscle. This protein may act as an actin-remodelling protein as well as a transcriptional coactivator. Homozygous knockout mice show embryonic lethality. This protein may act to regulate wound repair. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

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.
