Summary
Involved in muscle thin filament assembly. Located in Z disc. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; adult somatic muscle cell of thorax; spermatozoon; thoracic adult muscle precursor cell; and wing blade. Used to study congenital structural myopathy; myopathy; and nemaline myopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Baraitser-Winter syndrome 1 and thrombocytopenia. Orthologous to human ACTB (actin beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
