Other name
Tropomodulin-2 (Neuronal tropomodulin) (N-Tmod)
Background
This gene encodes a neuronal-specific member of the tropomodulin family of actin-regulatory proteins. The encoded protein caps the pointed end of actin filaments preventing both elongation and depolymerization. The capping activity of this protein is dependent on its association with tropomyosin. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008],
Function
function:Blocks the elongation and depolymerization of the actin filaments at the pointed end. The Tmod/TM complex contributes to the formation of the short actin protofilament, which in turn defines the geometry of the membrane skeleton.,similarity:Belongs to the tropomodulin family.,subunit:Binds to the N-terminus of tropomyosin and to actin.,tissue specificity:Neuronal-tissue specific.,
