Syne2 - spectrin repeat containing, nuclear envelope 2

Enables actin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including centrosome localization; nuclear migration; and regulation of cilium assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including fibroblast migration; nuclear envelope organization; and protein localization to nucleus. Located in Z disc and nuclear outer membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy 5. Orthologous to human SYNE2 (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope protein 2).
