Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionarx-3 also called as p41Arc encodes a subunit of the actin related protein of the conserved Arp2/3 complex, with 60% amino acid similarity with the homologous genes from human (OMIM: 604223); arx-3 is an essential gene as disruption in the expression by RNAi results in embryonic arrest due to ventral enclosure during morphogenesis; Arp2/3 depletion results in partial shrinking of the Ea/p apical surfaces and incomplete Ea/p cell internalization; WSP-1 activates Arp2/3 complex in vitro; WSP-1 and the Arp2/3 complex associate and function cell autonomously at cell boundaries during ventral enclosure; localization of WSP-1 is dependent on the Arp2/3 complex; expression of WSP-1 increases by the reduction of functional ARX-1. Arp2/3 regulates some Apical Junction components in embryos and adults; Arp2/3 is required during intestinal morphogenesis for regulation of intestinal lumen width in embryos and apical F-actin accumulation during larval and adult growth.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00005843

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin nucleation. Predicted to be located in actin cytoskeleton and cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of Arp2/3 protein complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); immunodeficiency 71; and myelodysplastic syndrome. Is an ortholog of human ARPC1A (actin related protein 2/3 complex subunit 1A) and ARPC1B (actin related protein 2/3 complex subunit 1B).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (11)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
