ACTRT2 actin related protein T2

Gene ID: 140625, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ARPM2; ARPT2; Arp-T2; HARPM2

Summary

The protein encoded by this intronless gene belongs to the actin family. Studies have shown that this protein may be involved in cytoskeletal organization similar to other cytoplasmic actin-related protein (ARP) subfamily members. Antibody raised against the human protein has been used to detect the protein by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence microscopy, demonstrating its specific synthesis in the testis, late in spermatid differentiation, and its localization in the calyx.
