Description
Predicted to have actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including actin cortical patch assembly; actin cortical patch localization; and positive regulation of actin nucleation. Predicted to localize to actin cortical patch and actin filament. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome and severe congenital neutropenia. Is expressed in hematopoietic system; leukocyte; neuromast; and thrombocyte. Orthologous to human WAS (WASP actin nucleation promoting factor).
