ACTR8
Description
The ACTR8 (actin related protein 8) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 3.
ACTR8 plays a crucial role in the proper arrangement of chromosomes during cell division (mitosis). It has limited ATP-driven energy activity and cannot form long chains (polymerize).
ACTR8 is also known as ARP8, INO80N, hArp8.
