Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin cytoskeleton organization and muscle cell development. Located in dense body; striated muscle dense body; and striated muscle thin filament. Expressed in tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including congenital myopathy 8; focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 1; and intrinsic cardiomyopathy (multiple). Is an ortholog of human ACTN2 (actinin alpha 2) and ACTN3 (actinin alpha 3).
