About SPIRE2

Cytogenetic location: 16q24.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:89,828,475-89,871,319 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 198 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in stomach (RPKM 4.5), colon (RPKM 4.1) and 20 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable actin binding activity. Involved in establishment of meiotic spindle localization; formin-nucleated actin cable assembly; and positive regulation of double-strand break repair. Predicted to be located in cytoskeleton; cytosol; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cell cortex and cytoplasmic vesicle membrane. Predicted to colocalize with cleavage furrow.
