ACTL7A (actin like 7A)

Gene

• Entrez ID: 10881
• Gene name: Actin like 7A
• Gene symbol: ACTL7A
• Synonyms (NCBI Gene): SPGF86
• Chromosome: 9
• Chromosome location: 9q31.3
• Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of actin-related proteins (ARPs) which share significant amino acid sequence identity to conventional actins. Both actins and ARPs have an actin fold, which is an ATP-binding cleft, as a common feat
