Description

Predicted to have metal ion binding activity. Involved in heart contraction and regulation of protein kinase B signaling. Predicted to localize to cell-cell junction; cytoplasm; and focal adhesion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2W. Is expressed in adaxial cell; myotome; pectoral fin musculature; and somite. Orthologous to several human genes including LIMS1 (LIM zinc finger domain containing 1).
