Gene Summary:
- DBD Genes Classification
- ACTB is an Emerging candidate gene classified as Tier 3. Tier 3 genes have one de novo pathogenic loss-of-function variants.
- Gene Function
- Actin is a highly conserved protein that polymerizes to produce filaments that form cross-linked networks in the cytoplasm of cells (PubMed:25255767, PubMed:29581253). Actin exists in both monomeric (G-actin) and polymeric (F-actin) forms, both forms playing key functions, such as cell motility and contraction (PubMed:29581253). In addition to their role in the cytoplasmic cytoskeleton, G- and F- actin also localize in the nucleus, and regulate gene transcription and motility and repair of damag... (Source: Uniprot)
