Background
This gene encodes a cytoskeletal protein that is required for organizing the actin cytoskeleton. The protein is a component of actin-containing microfilaments, and it is involved in the control of cell shape, adhesion, and contraction. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with a susceptibility to pancreatic cancer type 1, and also with a risk for myocardial infarction. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009],
Function
caution:Was wrongly assigned as myoneurin (Ref.2).,disease:Genetic variations in PALLD are associated with susceptibility to pancreatic cancer type 1 (PNCA1) [MIM:606856]. Expression is increased early in the development of pancreatic cancer: in normal-appearing whole tissue immediately adjacent to cancer, in the pre-cancer, and in both the familial and sporadic forms of the cancer.,disease:Genetic variations in PALLD may be associated with myocardial infarction.,function:Cytoskeletal protein required for organization of normal actin cytoskeleton. Roles in establishing cell morphology, motility, cell adhesion and cell-extracellular matrix interactions in a variety of cell types. May function as a scaffolding molecule with the potential to influence both actin polymerization and the assembly of existing actin filaments into higher-order arrays. Binds to proteins that bind to either monome
