Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionact-4 encodes an actin isoform that is most similar to act-2 in amino acid sequence; an act-4 reporter gene is expressed in body wall and vulval muscles and the spermatheca.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00001178

Automated_descriptionPredicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in actin cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cytokinesis. Located in striated muscle thin filament. Expressed in body wall musculature; gonad; spermatheca; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Baraitser-Winter syndrome 1; Baraitser-Winter syndrome 2; and autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 20. Is an ortholog of human ACTB (actin beta).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkX -6.25
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
