---|---|
Actin-binding protein involved in motile and morphological processes. Inhibits actin polymerization, likely by sequestering G- actin. By capping the barbed ends of filaments, it also regulates motility. Seems to play an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and distribution of endocytic organelles. May play a role in regulating the mature length of the middle and short rows of stereocilia. {Experimental EvidencePubMed:18837697, Experimental EvidencePubMed:19955359}. | Assigned Ontology terms |
