Description
Predicted to have ankyrin binding activity and structural molecule activity. Involved in locomotory behavior and skeletal muscle tissue development. Predicted to colocalize with intermediate filament. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Q; epidermolysis bullosa simplex; epidermolysis bullosa simplex Ogna type; and epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy. Is expressed in epidermis and yolk syncytial layer. Orthologous to human PLEC (plectin).
