| Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 50884 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to contribute to small GTPase binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of actin filament polymerization and positive regulation of lamellipodium assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including apical protein localization; embryonic morphogenesis; and segmentation. Located in lamellipodium and ruffle. Part of filamentous actin. Is active in postsynapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; immune system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human NCKAP1 (NCK associated protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene exhibit growth arrest at midgestation, an open neural tube, cardia bifida, defective foregut development, defects in endoderm and mesoderm migration and sometimes duplication of the anteroposterior body axis.
