Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables actin filament binding activity; beta-catenin binding activity; and protein domain specific binding activity. Involved in cell migration and melanosome organization. Acts upstream of or within cell-cell junction maintenance and negative regulation of actin filament depolymerization. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; apical plasma membrane; and bicellular tight junction. Colocalizes with cortical actin cytoskeleton. Is expressed in several structures, including blood vessel; central nervous system; epithelium; inner ear; and retina inner plexiform layer. Orthologous to human SHROOM2 (shroom family member 2).
