This gene encodes an enzyme that oxidizes methionine residues on actin, thereby promoting depolymerization of actin filaments. This protein interacts with and regulates signalling by NEDD9/CAS-L (neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down-regulated 9). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function:
cofactor:FAD .,Domain:The C-terminal coiled coil part contains the plexin-interacting region.,Function:May be a cytoskeletal regulator that connects NEDD9 to intermediate filaments.,similarity:Contains 1 CH (calponin-homology) domain.,similarity:Contains 1 LIM zinc-binding domain.,subunit:Associates with the SH3 domain of NEDD9.
