Gene summary | | This gene encodes a smooth muscle cell-specific cytoskeletal protein. The encoded protein is structurally similar to calponin, an actin-binding protein. In mouse models of atherosclerosis the gene product may be involved in plaque cell and atherosclerotic lesion formation during atherogenesis. [provided by RefSeq] |
