Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 59
Gene name Actin alpha 2, smooth muscle
Gene symbol ACTA2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ACTSASMDYS
Chromosome 10
Chromosome location 10q23.31
Summary This gene encodes one of six different actin proteins. Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in cell motility, structure, integrity, and intercellular signaling. The encoded protein is a smooth muscle actin that is involved in vascular co
