This gene is only expressed in hematopoietic cells. The encoded protein is a part of the Scar/WAVE complex which plays an important role in regulating cell shape in both metazoans and plants. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010] Expression Broad expression in lymph node (RPKM 38.4), appendix (RPKM 34.7) and 18 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
