About Actg1

Summary

Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and maintenance of the Cytoskeleton. In vertebrates, three main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta, and gamma, have been identified. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. The beta and gamma actins co-exist in most cell types as components of the Cytoskeleton, and as mediators of internal cell motility. Actin, gamma 1, encoded by this gene, is a cytoplasmic actin found in non-muscle cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
