The ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of small GTP-binding proteins are involved in vesicular transport regulation and in controlling cytoskeletal organization and cell adhesion. These proteins mainly regulate membrane traffic. ACAP2 is a member of the centaurin GTPase-activating protein (GAP) family, which comprises a subset of ARF regulatory molecules that transduce PI 3-kinase activation into coordinated control of ARF-dependent pathways. ACAP1 and ACAP2 are both widely expressed in pe

The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA N-glycosylase of the endonuclease III family. Like a similar protein in E. coli, the encoded protein has DNA glycosylase activity on DNA substrates containing oxidized pyrimidine residues and has apurinic/apyrimidinic lyase activity.

Myosin Ib is a motor protein that is involved in cell migration, neurite outgrowth and vesicular transport. In multivesicular endosomes, Myosin Ib has been implicated in protein cargo traffic control.

This gene is a member of the septin family of nucleotide binding proteins, originally described in yeast as cell division cycle regulatory proteins. Septins are highly conserved in yeast, Drosophila, and mouse, and appear to regulate cytoskeletal organization. Disruption of septin function disturbs cytokinesis and results in large multinucleate or polyploid cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2012].
