Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables small GTPase binding activity. Involved in modification of postsynaptic actin cytoskeleton; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and synapse maturation. Acts upstream of or within neural tube closure and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cochlea; hemolymphoid system; liver; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 18. Orthologous to human PFN1 (profilin 1).
