Name

XIRP1 Gene

xin actin binding repeat containing 1

The protein encoded by this gene is a striated muscle protein and belongs to the Xin actin-binding repeat-containing protein (XIRP) family. The protein functions to protect actin filaments during depolymerization. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

XIRP2 Gene

xin actin binding repeat containing 2

Enables actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin filament organization and regulation of actin filament organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within cardiac muscle tissue morphogenesis; cell-cell junction organization; and ventricular septum development. Located in focal adhesion and stress fiber. Implicated in depressive disorder. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
