About Fmn2

Summary

Predicted to enable actin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including Cytoskeleton organization; meiotic nuclear division; and oogenesis. Acts upstream of or within actin filament bundle assembly and meiotic chromosome movement towards spindle pole. Located in several cellular components, including endoplasmic reticulum membrane; microvillus; and spindle. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; ganglia; neural ectoderm; otocyst; and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive non-syndromic intellectual disability. Orthologous to human FMN2 (formin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
