Gene information for ARPC1A (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10552
Official gene symbolARPC1A
Full nameactin related protein 2/3 complex, subunit 1A, 41kDa
Aliases,Arc40,SOP2Hs,SOP2L,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes one of seven subunits of the human Arp2/3 protein complex. This subunit is a member of the SOP2 family of proteins and is most similar to the protein encoded by gene ARPC1B. The similarity between these two proteins suggests that they both may function as p41 subunit of the human Arp2/3 complex that has been implicated in the control of actin polymerization in cells. It is possible that the p41 subunit is involved in assembling and maintaining the structure of the Arp2/3 complex. Multiple versions of the p41 subunit may adapt the functions of the complex to different cell types or developmental stages. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
