About TWF1

Cytogenetic location: 12q12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:43,793,723-43,806,317 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 246 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in esophagus (RPKM 46.7), thyroid (RPKM 44.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes twinfilin, an actin monomer-binding protein conserved from yeast to mammals. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggest that this protein may be an actin monomer-binding protein, and its localization to cortical G-actin-rich structures may be regulated by the small GTPase RAC1.
