Summary: Enables actin filament binding activity and calcium ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including Rac protein signal transduction; actin filament organization; and ruffle assembly. Acts upstream of or within actin filament bundle assembly. Located in several cellular components, including actin filament; phagocytic cup; and ruffle membrane. Is expressed in adrenal cortex; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; and retina.

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.
