Description

Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and beta-catenin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including brain morphogenesis; neuron projection morphogenesis; and regulation of synapse structural plasticity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell adhesion and cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in axon and cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of catenin complex. Predicted to be active in adherens junction. Is expressed in female organism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations. Orthologous to human CTNNA2 (catenin alpha 2).
