Palld - palladin, cytoskeletal associated protein

Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization; positive regulation of podosome assembly; and trophoblast giant cell differentiation. Located in several cellular components, including Z disc; actin cytoskeleton; and axonal growth cone. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human PALLD (palladin, cytoskeletal associated protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
