Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Acts upstream of or within actin polymerization or depolymerization and lamellipodium assembly. Located in several cellular components, including brush border; lamellipodium; and sperm connecting piece. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in brain; foregut; heart; and skeletal muscle. Orthologous to human CAPZB (capping actin protein of muscle Z-line subunit beta).
