Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable actin binding activity and small GTPase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within actin nucleation; gene expression; and regulation of cellular component size. Predicted to be located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; alimentary system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease dominant intermediate E and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 5. Orthologous to human INF2 (inverted formin 2).
