    Summary
    Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in actin cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cytokinesis. Located in striated muscle thin filament. Is expressed in body wall muscle quadrant; body wall musculature; gonad; pharynx; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Baraitser-Winter syndrome 1; Baraitser-Winter syndrome 2; autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 20; and thrombocytopenia. Orthologous to several human genes including ACTB (actin beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
