Summary: Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of autophagic cell death; negative regulation of autophagy; and positive regulation of cellular component organization. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway and positive regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway. Located in actin cytoskeleton and cytoplasm. Part of myosin complex. Is expressed in brain; lung; and pituitary gland. Orthologous to human BMF (Bcl2 modifying factor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
