[5][6][7] The protein encoded by this gene is a transformation and shape-change sensitive actin cross-linking/gelling protein found in fibroblasts and smooth muscle.
Its expression is down-regulated in many cell lines, and this down-regulation may be an early and sensitive marker for the onset of transformation.
Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
