Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables several functions, including actin filament binding activity; calmodulin binding activity; and protein kinase C binding activity. Involved in several processes, including actin filament organization; nervous system development; and response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. Located in several cellular components, including cell cortex; cytoskeleton; and germinal vesicle. Is active in organelle. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; nerve; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Lynch syndrome. Orthologous to human MARCKS (myristoylated alanine rich protein kinase C substrate).
