Gene: Actn2 (actinin alpha 2) Rattus norvegicus
Analyze
Symbol: Actn2
Name: actinin alpha 2
Description: ENCODES a protein that exhibits actin filament binding (ortholog); cytoskeletal protein binding (ortholog); FATZ binding (ortholog); INVOLVED IN actin filament uncapping (ortholog); cardiac muscle cell development (ortholog); focal adhesion assembly (ortholog); PARTICIPATES IN arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy pathway; Entamoebiasis pathway; systemic lupus erythematosus pathway; ASSOCIATED WITH arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ortholog); cardiomyopathy (ortholog); Cardiomyopathy, Familial Hypertrophic, 23 (ortholog); FOUND IN cortical actin cytoskeleton; glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic density membrane; INTERACTS WITH 17beta-estradiol; acrylamide; benzo[a]pyrene
AGR Description: Predicted to have several functions, including cytoskeletal protein binding activity, ion channel binding activity, and protein domain specific binding activity; predicted to be involved in several processes, including actin filament uncapping, positive regulation of transport, and striated muscle cell development; localizes to the glutamatergic synapse, postsynaptic density membrane, and postsynaptic density, intracellular component; colocalizes with the cortical actin cytoskeleton; orthologous to human ACTN2 (actinin alpha 2).
