Target Information
Chicken F-Actin-Capping Protein Subunit Alpha-2 (CAPZA2) is a subunit of the F-actin-capping protein complex (CapZ), which is a heterodimer consisting of α and β subunits. CAPZA2 binds to the barbed end of actin filaments, regulating their growth by blocking the exchange of subunits at these ends. This process is crucial for maintaining the stability of the actin cytoskeleton, which is essential for cell shape, motility, and structural integrity. In chickens, CAPZA2 is highly expressed in muscle tissues and plays a key role in muscle contraction and relaxation by stabilizing actin filaments during these processes.
