Function | Filament-forming cytoskeletal GTPase (Probable). Plays an important role in male fertility and sperm motility. During spermiogenesis, essential for the establishment of the annulus (a fibrous ring structure connecting the midpiece and the principal piece of the sperm flagellum) which is a requisite for the structural and mechanical integrity of the sperm. Involved in the migration of cortical neurons and the formation of neuron leading processes during embryonic development. Isoform ARTS: Required for the induction of cell death mediated by TGF-beta and possibly by other apoptotic stimuli. Induces apoptosis through binding and inhibition of XIAP resulting in significant reduction in XIAP levels, leading to caspase activation and cell death. |
