About ACTR1A

Cytogenetic location: 10q24.32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:102,479,229-102,502,712 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues and 26 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 46.1), heart (RPKM 30.0) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a 42.6 kD subunit of dynactin, a macromolecular complex consisting of 10-11 subunits ranging in size from 22 to 150 kD. Dynactin binds to both microtubules and cytoplasmic dynein. It is involved in a diverse array of cellular functions, including ER-to-Golgi transport, the centripetal movement of lysosomes and endosomes, spindle formation, chromosome movement, nuclear positioning, and axonogenesis. This subunit is present in 8-13 copies per dynactin molecule, and is the most abundant molecule in the dynactin complex. It is an actin-related protein, and is approximately 60% identical at the amino acid level to conventional actin. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
