    Summary
    Enables actin monomer binding activity and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding activity. Involved in barbed-end actin filament capping and sequestering of actin monomers. Located in several cellular components, including lamellipodium; myofibril; and stereocilium. Is expressed in several structures, including ear; early embryo; genitourinary system; nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human TWF2 (twinfilin actin binding protein 2).

    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.
