MACF1 microtubule actin crosslinking factor 1

Gene ID: 23499, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ACF7; LIS9; MACF; OFC4; ABP620; KIAA0754; Lnc-PMIF

Summary

This gene encodes a large protein containing numerous spectrin and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains. The encoded protein is a member of a family of proteins that form bridges between different cytoskeletal elements. This protein facilitates actin-microtubule interactions at the cell periphery and couples the microtubule network to cellular junctions. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]
