About CAPZA2

Cytogenetic location: 7q31.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:116,862,587-116,922,049 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in heart (RPKM 60.8), urinary bladder (RPKM 54.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the F-actin capping protein alpha subunit family. It is the alpha subunit of the barbed-end actin binding protein Cap Z. By capping the barbed end of actin filaments, Cap Z regulates the growth of the actin filaments at the barbed end. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
