Caenorhabditis elegans

Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in neuron projection morphogenesis; postsynaptic actin cytoskeleton organization; and regulation of cellular component size. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including actin cytoskeleton; plasma membrane bounded cell projection; and postsynapse. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Down syndrome; and cognitive disorder. Is an ortholog of human DBNL (drebrin like).
