Actg1

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]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Actg1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
