Predicted to enable beta-catenin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin cytoskeleton organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including anterior neural tube closure; negative regulation of protein depolymerization; and positive regulation of protein kinase B signaling. Predicted to be located in cell-cell junction; cytoplasm; and cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of filamentous actin. Predicted to be active in microtubule organizing center. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Opitz GBBB syndrome type II and oblique facial clefting 1. Orthologous to human SPECC1L (sperm antigen with calponin homology and coiled-coil domains 1 like). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
